Italian police on Tuesday arrested
a 27-year-old Italian man who allegedly disfigured his
25-year-old Italian wife's face with a red-hot kitchen knife.
The man allegedly committed the act in a fit of jealousy at
Molinella near Bologna on the night of Sunday-Monday, police
said.
The woman's aunt called the police.
She was rushed to hospital where doctors treated her and said
sit would take 60 days for her wounds to heal.
The man has been charged with domestic violence and grievous
bodily harm.
Domestic violence reports have surged amid the coronavirus
lockdown that is now being eased.
