A 30-year-old man from Nalla Sopara was stabbed by his aunt on Sunday for refusing to have sex with her. Jitendra Vishwakarma, a resident of Moregaon and a carpenter by profession, was found bleeding from several stab wounds by his wife, Anjali, who called the police. Jitendra was rushed to the hospital, where his condition continues to be critical. Police arrested the accused, Rina Vishwakarma, 28, on the spot.According to the police, Jitendra, who is married with two children, met his aunt during an assignment in Bhopal in late October. For three months he allegedly engaged in an extramarital affair with Rina, who was married to another carpenter there, said sub-inspector Sunil Jadhav from Tulinj police station. He returned to Mumbai after his wife got wind of the affair. On September 9, Rina reached the city and told Jitendra she had left her husband to be with him. Jitendra then convinced his wife to let her stay with them, said the official. Their affair continued when his wife was out working, but on Sunday, her advances were rejected by the victim. Rina allegedly retaliated by picking up a blade and slashing Jitendra’s genital area, before stabbing him in the stomach and back. Anjali returned home then to find her husband unconscious on the ground. She called the police who arrested the aunt, said Jadhav.“We have arrested Rina under Section 307 (attempt to murder) of the IPC and are investigating further. She was remanded in police custody and produced before the Vasai court,” Jadhav said.
