ADELAIDE, Australia, Sept. 29 (UPI) -- An Australian woman who burned her husband to death said she intended to burn only his genitals, prosecutors said.
The prosecution in Rajini Narayan's murder trial in South Australia's Supreme Court in Adelaide said Wednesday she made the claim to neighbors right after the fire, the Australian Broadcasting Corp. reported.
Prosecutors said Narayan set her husband, Satish, on fire at their home in December 2008 because she thought he was having an affair.
The defense said she came to believe that if she burned his penis he would stay with her, but she ended up throwing a container of gasoline and a candle on his back when he dismissed her threat.
He died from his burns three weeks later.
The defense told the jury Narayan's husband had physically and emotionally abused her for 20 years but she still loved him.
Liar, liar, (his) pants on fire.
Indian Hindu or Muslim?
>> The defense said she came to believe that if she burned his penis he would stay with her,
And I thought *we* had some strange courtship rituals.
It seems to me that a smart man would not turn his back on a woman who’s threatening to burn his penis off ... but maybe I just don’t understand men.
Once you start, it's hard to stop.
‘If she burned his penis, he would stay with her.’ One of the top 10 ways to show a guy you love him, yessirree.
Hindu.
Oh, well OK if it was a mistake and she really loved him.
Nothing says “stay with me and I love you” like burning your man’s penis off....
my thoughts exactly -
If it was Muslim - maybe this is a new thing in Islam were women get stoned - men get burned ? ? ?
By the first names given, Hindu.
I don’t know how to post pictures, but there’s one of her here: http://www.whatsonxiamen.com/news11523.html
What a battle axe!
By the first names given, Hindu.
Was he invited as a guest to the Australian weenie roast or was considered a member?
Burned his what?
Adultery is a sin.
Setting his thighs on fire...you’re doing it wrong.
No, really, ladies, I hate to be the one to break the news, but arson on your guy’s privates is probably not going to make him want to stay with you.
>> The defense said she came to believe that if she burned his penis he would stay with her, but she ended up throwing a container of gasoline.
First — its almost impressive that she thought she needed a whole container of gasoline to burn just his penis.
Second — what woman could possibly believe that burning her guy’s junk would make him want to STAY with her ... as opposed to, for instance, torturing her within an inch of her life and then never seeing her crazy-ass again?

If she paid more of the right kind of attention to it in the first place, maybe he wouldn't have been taking it out on the town.
