Horrific: The pregnant rape victim left her attacker's severed head in the centre of the Turkish town of Yalvac

Womens' groups in Turkey have praised her as a heroine. It turned out that the woman, aged 26 and a mother-of-two, had been abused by her attacker for months before she took her revenge and was being blackmailed.

The woman even said she is prepared to die as long as she is allowed to have the abortion, according to the Hurriyet Daily News .

The rapist had taken nude photos of her and threatened to send them to her parents unless she continued sleeping with him.

She took a gun and shot him ten times, several times in his private parts, before cutting off his head and hurling it into the village square at Yalvac.

The man was also reportedly stabbed in the abdomen after he was shot.

'He kept saying that he would tell everyone about the rape,' she reportedly said during her testimony. 'My daughter will start school this year.

'Everyone would have insulted my children. Now no one can. I saved my honour,' she added.
