A woman in Ahmedabad alleged that her husband cut off her tongue after kissing her.



The 36-year-old woman from the Juhapura area of Ahmedabad filed a complaint with Vejalpur police. The incident took place on late Wednesday night.



According to a report in TOI, the woman was rushed to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel (SVP) hospital where she underwent surgery.

The woman works as a nurse at a private hospital and had married a Dariapur-based man in 2004 but divorced him after 5 years.



The woman married a man from Juhapura in 2018, who had been married twice and still had one marriage in subsistence. The woman discovered later that her husband was still living with his second wife and son.

The woman told police that her husband tortured her often. He had thrashed her a week ago when she refused to give him money, said the FIR. However, they later reconciled.



"On Wednesday night at around 11 pm, when we were lying on one bed, my husband smiled at me and told that he wanted to kiss me on my tongue. I stuck out my tongue and as soon as I did, he first bit my tongue and held it and then cut it off with a knife," stated the woman, who was unable to speak.



The accused then locked the house from outside and fled.



The woman made a video call to her sister and showed her her condition. Her sister rushed to the place, got another key from the neighbour and took the victim to the hospital.
