Subject: Re: Lucky Dube Shot Dead!! Author: talapen [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: Wed, Oct 24 2007, 10:21:04am In reply to: Miok Rutz 's message, "Lucky Dube Shot Dead!!" on Fri, Oct 19 2007, 06:16:55pm Man chops off wife’s arm AN ENGAN woman has quietly spent four weeks at Mt Hagen General Hospital after her right hand was amputated above the elbow. Diyamo Na, a 26-year-old housewife from Neauk village in Maramuni, was evacuated to Mt Hagen by Mission Aviationary Fellowship after her husband allegedly chopped her arm over a feud at the remote district six weeks ago. She said from her hospital bed that her husband had killed a pig her sister had given her. When she tried to ask why he had done that, the man grabbed his bush knife and struck at her, she claimed. Doctors who operated on her said only a small part of the skin had clung to the hand. But they said they could not preserve the hand as it was already infected, leaving them with no option but to part of the arm to save her. Due to the remoteness of her village and high cost of airline fares, it took her relatives two weeks to come up with the required amount to fly her to Mt Hagen. Maramuni is on the fringes of Porgera in Enga, Madang and East Sepik provinces and is only accessible by air. MAF runs a weekly flight to the isolated area. The mother-of-three said her husband could not be arrested to face charges as there are no police there. The health workers say when the nation is experiencing a rise in domestic violence, police are doing little to pursue such cases. “We have dealt with many such cases and compiled medical reports but police hardly ever make arrests,” a doctor said. They said a child received severe abdomen injuries last week when two women fought over a man. Also a small boy from Nebilyer lost his hand when his step mother attacked him when trying to fight his mother. “The frustrating thing is his father didn’t want to pursue the case which should have seen his wife ending up in jail,” the doctor said. They supported Dr John Warai of Lufa who said that domestic violence was rife in the rural areas and that only stiffer penalties would deter such crimes. NOW THAT IS AN ISSUE WE SHOULD BE SERIOUSLY DISCUSSING ON THIS FORUM! TALAPEN [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Thats a new thread and should be posted as new and not a continuation of this thread. 2. Copying things word for word without referencing the source is a literacy crime called "plagiarism". 3. If something is a closed book for you why make a fuss about it. Are you that dumb??? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
