Bhakar — Driven by suspicion of infidelity a man put a chastity lock on his wife for over five years by piercing her with crude knitting needles. The horrifying tale of harassment unfolded when doctors of MY Hospital interrogated the woman. The lock was surgically removed from the woman on Tuesday. Thirty five-year-old Shyama Bai (name changed) told that the lock was put by her husband, Sohanlal Chouhan, after forcing her to drink alcohol and rendering her unconscious around five years ago. The woman told the interrogators that after putting the lock, Chouhan carried the keys with him when he went to work and removed it in the night. Chouhan, a labourer ,who was being questioned at the Sanyogitaganj police station, told that he took the step as he was fearful that his wife might entertain other men. “Three of my sisters and six of their (sisters’) daughters have eloped,” he said, trying to justify his move.

Look I get that this is pretty horrible. Sohanal Chouhan probably could have opted for the old fashioned iron underwear chastity belt rather than using knitting needles to sew a loop stitch around his wife’s clit. I know that. But the fact of the matter is that his hands were tied. He thought she might cheat. For god’s sake three of his sisters and six of their daughters eloped. The writing was on the wall. When you get in a car and put on your seatbelt you don’t do it because you know you’re going to get in an accident, you do it just in case. Sohanal tied his wife’s tubes just in case she had the inkling to go around fucking everyone in Sanyogitaganj. Didn’t want her pussy looking like a five car pile up. I get that. Like putting a shock collar on your dog. You do it because you love her and don’t want her to run away. This is more of a tale of romance than abuse if you ask me.
