Woman cuts off 'boyfriend's' genitals in UP, his family alleges 'love trap'



A 22-year-old man in Uttar Pradesh's Gorakhpur was allegedly assaulted and had his genitals mutilated by his alleged girlfriend and her four brothers. The victim’s family claimed he was lured into a "love trap" by the woman, as their families were already embroiled in a longstanding dispute.
However, the woman alleged that the man broke into her house at night and attempted to assault her, prompting her to retaliate by mutilating his genitals.
The incident occurred when the victim, Mithun Kumar, went to meet the woman, who is eight years older than him. According to the complaint filed by his father, Basant Lal, Mithun was returning home from the farm when the woman, who lives two houses away and has been in contact with him over the phone for nearly two years, called him to meet her.
Unbeknownst to Mithun, the woman’s four brothers were allegedly lying in wait. As per the complaint, they caught him, abused and beat him severely.
The brothers allegedly restrained Mithun by holding his hands and legs, and then forced the woman to mutilate him with a blade. The assault resulted in profuse bleeding, after which the accused reportedly threw Mithun out of the house.
A villager who spotted the injured man informed his father. Basant Lal rushed his son to a hospital, where Mithun is currently undergoing treatment. His condition remains critical. Despite receiving medical attention and stitches, he continues to drift in and out of consciousness due to excessive blood loss.
The father claimed there had been prior animosity between the two families, which had once required police intervention and led to a cessation of communication. He further alleged that the woman deliberately lured his son to her house under the pretext of meeting and orchestrated the assault.
In a contrasting version of events, the woman also filed a police complaint, alleging that Mithun forcibly entered her home around 1 am and attempted to behave inappropriately. She claimed that she acted in self-defence by injuring him.
Superintendent of Police (City), Gorakhpur, Abhinav Tyagi confirmed that complaints have been received from both parties and that further investigation is underway.
