Um turco cortou o nariz e as orelhas da mulher como vingança por ter sido denunciado por maus-tratos e ficado três meses na cadeia.
Segundo a imprensa da Turquia, o agressor, um açougueiro de profissão, desfigurou a esposa assim que deixou a prisão onde cumpriu pena por maltratá-la.
O acusado levou a mulher até a margem de um rio na cidade de Bingol (sudeste). No local, ele mergulhou várias vezes a cabeça dela na água, além de praticar agressões verbais.
Depois, ele pegou uma faca, cortou o nariz e as orelhas da mulher e fugiu.
A esposa foi levada para um hospital e teve o rosto reconstituído por cirurgiões plásticos. Já o marido violento foi detido e mandado de volta para prisão.
Segundo as autoridades turcas, a cada três minutos uma mulher é vítima de maus-tratos no país. Os casos de violência brutal dentro de casa são frequentes no sudeste do país, onde as relações de caráter quase feudal ainda são dominantes.
