Gaybutton Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 The following is from CBS News: ____ Man Dies After Having Penis Set On Fire ADELAIDE, Australia, Jan. 6, 2009(CBS/ AP) An Australian woman accused of setting her husband's genitals on fire because she thought he was having an affair has been charged with murder. Prosecutors said 44-year-old Rajini Narayan confessed to neighbors that she set her husband on fire on Dec. 8, 2008, after she saw him hug another woman. She was initially charged with endangering life and arson but the charges were upgraded to murder after her 47-year-old husband, Satish Narayan, died from his injuries last week. Prosecutor Lucy Boord said Narayan told neighbors she was a "jealous wife" but she hadn't meant to kill him when she doused the sleeping man's genitals with an alcohol-based solvent and then set him on fire. Boord quoted Narayan allegedly saying: "I just wanted to burn his penis so it belongs to me and no one else. ... I didn't mean this to happen." The husband jumped out of bed and knocked over the bottle of alcohol, causing the fire to spread and resulting in 1 million Australian dollars ($711,000) of damage to their town house and an adjacent property, the Adelaide Advertiser reported. "She poses a substantial risk to others given her flagrant offending," Boord told the newspaper. "Witnesses also heard the accused make references to using a police officer's gun on herself, and references to whether she should be alive at all," she added. Narayan was remanded in custody for psychological assessment and will reappear in court Friday. She has been charged with murder, arson and three counts of endangering life, as the couple's three children were at home during the incident.

Guest fountainhall Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Man Dies After Having Penis Set On Fire As this site has got much busier - for which thanks are clearly due to those behind the competition , I have noticed there is quite a iot of duplication not only between threads but in similar threads being opened. For example, I posted this last night - You thought you'd heard it all Penile immolation! - and 12 hours later the above was posted on exactly the same subject. I am perfectly happy for mine to be deleted but I wonder if this is because the site is now perhaps too busy and posters do not have time to read all the new posts.

Gaybutton Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 The fact that two of us posted different threads about the same subject reminds me of a line I liked in an old John Wayne-Kirk Douglas movie, "The War Wagon." As the two are exiting a saloon and are walking toward the livery stable, two bad guys try to ambush them. Of course, they both draw and "drop" the two bad guys at the same instant. Kirk Douglas looks at John Wayne and says, "Mine hit the ground first." John Wayne replies, "Mine was taller." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I have a feeling his was bigger than either of us! Somewhat my initial reaction (i.e., if it happened to me, it'd hardly be a roaring bonfire! ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
