Now wife faces probe for report on abusive sex

KAJANG: A man who was recently arrested for allegedly abusing his wife sexually with a cucumber and a brinjal, was not linked to the murder of 8-year-old Nurin Jazlin Jazimin two years ago.

Police investigations revealed that the 40-year-old man used the vegetables to "satisfy" his wife as he had lost the ability to have sex after a recent accident.

He was picked up by police earlier this month after his wife had lodged a report, alleging that he had been sexually abusing her using vegetables for the past six years.

But after questioning by police, it was learnt that the woman, in her late 30s, had a boyfriend, and had used the police report for the purpose of getting their marriage annulled.

"When the wife was questioned by the police, she broke down and admitted that she wanted a divorce from her husband to be with her boyfriend," a police source said.

"At the time of the report, she wanted a divorce but he refused to give in. The couple have been married for 16 years and have four children."

The source added that the husband had used the vegetables during their love-making and it was at his wife's request.

"In her report, the wife had also falsely accused her husband of violent sex," the source said.

"When the woman found out that police wanted to open investigation papers on the case, she wanted to withdraw her report."

Police, however, are not letting the woman get off easily. She is now being investigated for lodging a false report.

Kajang police chief Assistant Commissioner Sakaruddin Che Mood confirmed the case and said the man had been released on bail.

"We are, however, preparing a case against the woman," Sakaruddin said.

The woman's report also had police re-looking Nurin's case as the Year Two pupil was also sexually abused using a cucumber and a brinjal before she was brutally murdered.

Nurin, a pupil of SK Desa Setapak, was abducted some 500 metres from her house in Section 1, Wangsa Maju on August 20, 2007.

Her sexually ravaged body was found in a sports bag outside a shoplot in PJS 1, Petaling Jaya 28 days later. No one has yet been charged for the murder.
