A man has had his penis cut off following a dispute overpayment with a sex worker.
The man’s genitals were
placed in a black paper bag and he was admitted to hospital in Nakuru, Kenya, “bleeding excessively”.
Investigators
are now searching for the alleged attacker.
The man is thought to have had sex with a woman
working as a prostitute but the pair had not agreed on payment, leading to the
alleged attack.
Local
police Chief Stephen Macharia said: "The victim told me that he picked the
woman from the streets but unfortunately they did not agree on payment in
exchange for sex, only for her to attack him with a sharp knife."
Authorities said they recovered two blood-stained knives from the victim’s
house.
After the attack, the
man was discovered by his nephew. His aunt later arrived and described the
scene: "Being a woman, my nephew did not explain to me what transpired but
I was shocked the house was full of blood including his clothing,” she told
local newspaper The Standard.
“He called the taxi driver who rushed him to the hospital,”
she added.
"He was in deep pain when I found him in
the house,” the taxi driver told the newspaper. “He said that a woman, whom he
picked from the streets, had chopped off his manhood."
The
driver said the man also managed to tell him his genitals were in a black paper
bag but was unconscious when he was admitted to hospital.
"The
patient was received bleeding excessively after his private parts were chopped
off,” said Gender Violence Recovery Centre officer, Angela Gwaro. “He was taken
to theatre and his condition has been stabilised."
Urologists
will now work with the man to find a way to allow him to urinate.
