Choked, punched for saying ‘no’ to hubby

She was menstruating and when her husband demanded sex, the housewife naturally refused.

Her rejection led to a quarrel. It ended with her being punched in the face by her lorry driver husband.

The incident took place about 6am on Sunday at their home in Kampung Chalok Kedai in Setiu.

The 38-year-old man, who had just returned from work, had earlier tried to strangle the woman with his hands after he was spurned.

Fearing for her life, she ran to the kitchen and grabbed a knife before slashing her husband on his left arm. This angered the man, and he punched her.
The wife, who received outpatient treatment at Setiu Hospital, lodged a report at the Chalok police station at 11am the same day.

State CID deputy head Superintendent Khairi Ahrasa said the case was being investigated for causing hurt.
