I like how the last line says he "may be suffering from
psychological problems."
Man cuts off his penis to stop him sinning
31 August 2007
SALAMANCA A man cut off his own penis and threw it in a toilet
so he would stop sinning.
The 30-year-old was recovering in the Hospital Clinico
Universitario in Salamanca in western Spain.
Doctors said his condition was stable and he was not in danger of
losing his life.
The man, from Salamanca, cut off his penis with a knife on Thursday
morning.
The local newspaper La Gaceta reported when relatives called
emergency services, he told ambulance workers he did it so would
not sin any more.
A relative found the man, who has not been named, in the house
where they lived in the city and raised the alarm.
He was bleeding heavily.
The newspaper said it was not known if the mans penis could be
sewn back.
There was also a suggestion he may be suffering from psychological
problems.
