A popular karaoke performer was hospitalized after his jealous wife tried _
but failed _ to cut off his penis while he slept Wednesday, Phnom Penh police
said.
Kan Bun Hou, 26, was asleep when his wife, Ma Len, attacked him with a razor
blade, said Touch Sarin, a Phnom Penh police chief. Police were looking for the
woman, who fled after the attack.
``The injury is not severe. It could have been worse if she had used
scissors,'' he said. ``His wound is curable.''
The attack apparently stemmed from Kan Bun Hou's popularity as a karaoke
performer. The couple had fought the day before.
``He's a handsome man and used to party a lot at night,'' Touch Sarin said.
In August, a man was allegedly killed by his wife after she squeezed his
testicles until he fainted and then tied his neck to a bed with a scarf. The
woman, who said her husband used to beat her, turned herself in to the
police.
