KALYAN: Three days after his private parts were chopped off by a woman, a 27-year-old man died during treatment at JJ Hospital in Mumbai on Saturday. Tushar Pujare, the deceased, had been shifted to JJ from AIMS hospital in Dombivli on Friday night after his condition worsened.
The woman had claimed to have cut off Pujare’s private parts with the help of two male aides as he had molested her.

After Pujare’s death, the woman and her aides were slapped with the charge of murder, said senior police inspector Gajanan Kabdule. The police said that on Wednesday the 47-year-old woman and her two associates, Tejas Mahatre (25) and Pratik Kenia (22), had called Pujare to an isolated place in Nandivali, Dombivli, where they first assaulted him. The police asid that later Mahatre and Kenia caught hold of Pujare while the woman chopped off his private parts using a knife.

The woman later brought Pujare to hospital and confessed to her crime, though she did not name her two aides. During interrogation, the police learnt about the role of Mahatre and Kenia. The police said Pujare had demanded sexual favours from the woman but had been tunred down, after which he approached her husband, which made her angry.
