A woman set fire to her ex-husband's penis as he sat naked watching television
and drinking vodka, Moscow police said Wednesday.
Asked if the man would make a full recovery, a police spokeswoman said it was
"difficult to predict."
The attack climaxed three years of acrimonious enforced co-habitation. The
couple divorced three years ago but continued to share a small flat, something
common in Russia where property costs are very high.
"It was monstrously painful," the wounded ex-husband told Tvoi Den newspaper.
"I was burning like a torch. I don't know what I did to deserve this."
