MADURAI: A 30-year-old woman was booked for pouring hot oil on her husband’s private parts over a family dispute. Her husband, who is an autorickshaw driver, sustained burn injuries on his private parts and was admitted to the Government Rajaji Hospital (GRH) here.

Police identified the accused woman as P Sasikala of Nehru Nagar. Her husband, M Parameswaram , 37, had allegedly developed an extramarital relationship with a woman in Virattipathu. Sasikala came to know about the affair and started quarrelling with him.

He stopped coming home, and the issue was taken to the SS Colony police station. Police warned Parameswaran. But there was no relief for the woman as he continued to stay with his paramour.

Last week, Sasikala called him up, spoke nicely and invited him to stay with her. He came home on Saturday night. As he went to bed, she heated oil in a pan. After making sure that he had slept, she poured the hot oil on his private parts. He was rushed to the GRHTNN
