Bhopal, Jul 18: A 22-year-old woman in Damoh district of Madhya Pradesh has reported to the police that her husband had been drinking her blood for the past three years.

Deepa Ahirwad said that her husband Mahesh Ahirwad used to draw her blood from a syringe and pour it into a cup to drink it for three years in a row. She added that he had even threatened her not to reveal his gruesome act to anybody.

She alleged that he used to drink her blood as it strenghtened him. He did not stop consuming her blood even when she was pregnant. She complained that she would feel drained and nauseating after the blood extraction. When she resisted, her husband beat her up.

Deepa had escaped to her parent's house with the baby in her arms. After hearing his daugter's story he took her to the local police station to register a case against Mahesh. But the police said that the case was not under their jurisdiction and the matter should be reported to the Hindoriya police station as the victim resided with her husband in that area.

Deepa and her parents took the matter to Hindoriya, where they were directed to the women counseling section. Neither Hindoriya nor Patera registered a case against the absconding Mahesh. When the residents of Shikarpura came to know of Mahesh's deeds, they took up Deepa's cause. The Hindoriya police have now registered an FIR that she was physically tortured by her husband.
