Man Stabs Wife In The Eye Blinds Her And Fled
That is domestic violence at its highest
level. You stab your wife in the eye because you are angry? How many
people have you stabbed at work in anger or you don't get angry at work?
This is pure madness.
A man allegedly stabs his third wife in the eye, plans to flee Nigeria, but is caught by the police.
Deann Igho married Sylvester barely a year ago and hoped to have a good marriage. Their
affairs had started when she was a student at the University of Port
Harcourt. Their love affair blossomed, and they agreed to get married.
However,
Deann’s parents, siblings and relatives objected to her marrying
Sylvester. Along the line, she got pregnant for Sylvester and her family
didn’t have any choice but to grant her wish. She moved in to live with
Sylvester. Last year, she gave birth to a baby boy. Deann is Sylvester’s third wife.
First,
the man married about five years ago, and the marriage crashed after
producing a child. He married again, but his second wife did not give
him a child before they parted ways. He then married Deann.
The fight
Sylvester
returned home after being away for two weeks. A quarrel had ensued
between him and the wife in the evening. To Deann, the matter was
settled, but her husband did not want to let go. At night,
Sylvester woke his wife from sleep and demanded that they talked. His
wife told him that whatever discussion there was had to wait till the
morning, to avoid waking the baby, who had cough and catarrh. In a fit
of anger, Sylvester stabbed her twice in the eye, locked the door and
escaped.
Since
their home on Ada George Road, a developing part of Port Harcourt, is
isolated, neighbours could not hear Deann’s cries. Writhing in pains and
on the verge of bleeding to death, she managed to call her siblings in
Lagos, on phone. She also called her parents and Sylvester’s parents,
who also live in Lagos. She also, in pains, captured her bleeding face
with her Blackberry phone camera and sent them to those she called.
Her
family contacted their friends in Port Harcourt, Mr & Mrs. Castro,
who broke the door and took her out. She was then taken to the
University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital (UPTH) for medical
attention.
Nero Igho, Deann’s brother, who was in Lagos when he
got this distress call, says he called Sylvester several times, but the
latter refused to pick his call.
After initial treatment, Nero
took his sister to police area command, where the matter was reported.
She was, thereafter, transferred to Lagos State University Teaching
Hospital, Ikeja, where by a team of three doctors confirmed that the eye
was dead, after surgery. On his experience, Deann said:
“Sylvester used a knife to remove one of my eyes and locked the door
against me so that I will bleed to death.”
How Sylvester was arrested
After
the attack, Sylvester moved over to Lagos and was lodging in a hotel.
While in Lagos, he told those who called him on phone that he was in
Yenagoa, Bayelsa State. The bubble bust when someone sported him
and told Deann’s family. Nero traced him to the hotel and fooled him
into believing that there was no problem, as they saw the matter as his
trying time with his wife. He followed them home, where the police
picked him up. The police said he would be transferred to Port Harcourt, where the crime was committed.
Sylvester’s plot to flee Nigeria
It
was learnt that Sylvester actually planned to flee Nigeria, which was
why he came to Lagos. He had made arrangements for an International
passport, which he was waiting for before he was nabbed. While cooling
off at Lagos Police Command cell, Sylvester blamed Satan for his action.
He denied stabbing his wife. According to him, the ceiling fan cut her
wife’s eye.
