Phnom Penh (15 Feb, 2012): Police arrested a male villager on Tuesday on an allegation with forcing his 56-year-old wife to have sex, a local police officer said Wednesday. The police officer confirmed that the man’s wife had filed a complaint to a local human rights body, ADHOC, in Kandal province’s Takmao city after she had been unable to bear any longer for her 52-year-old husband who always forced her to have sexual intercourse while she was getting sick. After getting the complaint sent by ADHOC, the local police went to arrest the man at his home at lunchtime of 14 February, the Valentine’s Day, the police officer told Cambodia News.

The man is now in the police custody and he confessed what he has done but said he loves only his wife, the police official said. (CN staff)
