A pregnant wife has been given a suspended jail sentence for cutting off the penis of her cheating husband after he threatened to divorce her.
Nguyen Thi Thu H, 31, said she took a pair of scissors to her husband's genitalia following a row and his sexual misdemeanours.
She told the court in Lam Dong, Vietnam, that he slapped her after she refused to buy him more wine and then threatened a divorce.
The defendant said her paediatrician husband's marital affairs were the cause of their disagreements.
Nguyen decided to hack off her 38-year-old husband's penis while he lay in a drunken stupor in bed.
But after seeing how badly he was bleeding, she took him to hospital for treatment.
The court handed the woman a 20-month suspended sentence because she had shown remorse and was seven months pregnant
