Mazi had been harassing her for the past six months. Mazi is reportedly also
married and has five children.
“It is quite an unusual incident. As far as I am
aware, this is the first time that a woman has brought a severed penis to the
police station as evidence,” said police spokesperson Abul Khaer.
“We will arrest him once his condition gets
better,” said Khaer.
Mazi denied the allegations telling investigators
that the two were having an affair.
“Recently she suggested that both of us can go
settle down in Dhaka,” said Mazi. “I refused and told her that I cannot leave
my wife and children, so she took revenge on me.”
