Jealous wife cuts husband's PENIS with scissors after growing 'tired of his womanising' behaviour

32-year-old Liezel Betitta a jealous wife, has been arrested after cutting off her husband's penis - with a pair of scissors.

She was convinced that husband –Mark who worked in Iloilo City, the Philippines- was having an affair with a friend's wife at a building firm where he worked.

Her husband went out with friends  drinking after he finished from work and fell asleep at a friend's place - before his furious wife stormed round and found him.

Mark woke up in pain at around 10.30pm on April 22 after his wife grabbed his manhood and sliced it off two inches from the base.

She immediately ran away from the scene after perpetrating the act but was later arrested.

Liezel told the police that she had no regrets about what she did.

She said: 'I don't regret cutting off his penis. It's his punishment for being a womanizer. I am ready to face the consequences of my action.

'I am tired of his womanizing. He got a new girlfriend lately.'

Mark was helped by agitated  friends as blood poured from his wound . They rushed him to the Jesus Colmenares Memorial Hospital in the Balasan Town district which was several miles away.

He was later transferred to the Western Visayas Medical Center in Iloilo City where surgeons attempted unsuccessfully to reattach his penis.

Physicians said that because the major nerve had already been severed there was little they could do. Tissue from the part cut off had also already died.

Friends told police that the couple, who have 11-year-old twins and an eight-year-old daughter, were often arguing.

Police investigator Alexis Bataga from the Carles Police said officers were investigating the incident and have remanded Liezel in custody. He added that Mark wanted to press charges against his wife.

He said: 'We could not yet ascertain what drove her to harm her husband.

'The last time I talked to his family, they told me that he was recovering.'
