A WOMAN squeezed a disabled man's testicles and threatened him with a hypodermic needle before robbing him.

Natasha Dignum, 30, attacked the man in his mobility scooter just after he withdrew £60 ($90) from a cash machine.

She approached him at the ATM, asking for spare change, and then attacked him.

"I have a needle in my pocket and I will use it," she said.

The attack, which took place in Greater Manchester, in the UK, was captured on CCTV.

The man, 35, who has cerebral palsy, said he felt "sexually violated".

"I was unable to sleep in the same bed as my wife for three days afterwards. I just couldn't let my wife touch me. Even now our love life is non-existent," he said.

"When the girl who robbed me grabbed my testicles I felt it was sexual. I'm reluctant to go out and I'm upset I was unable to defend myself through having cerebral palsy."

A court heard that Dignum targeted lone men and left them in agony while stealing their money. Her lawyer said she needed the money to fuel her drug habit.

She was jailed for four years.
