RAJBIRAJ, Sept 24: A Dalit woman in a village of Saptari district has revealed that she cut the penis of a neighbor who allegedly tried to rape her.

“I was sleeping with the door open as I was feeling very hot after washing my baby in the night,” Kamait told the police. “At around one in the night, he (Yadav) crept into my room and tried to rape me by closing my mouth. In an act of self-defense, I picked up a knife and cut his penis.”
