Women are often victims of sexual harassment or inappropriate treatment at workplaces. Many a time, these circumstances force them to leave their jobs. While they might have escaped the unsafe environment, the perpetrators of such crimes continue to exploit other women.
According to Euro Weekly News, a bar worker who was being perpetually harassed by her boss finally took matters into her own hands. The woman cut off the man's genitals to protect herself from being raped by her abusive boss.

The incident unfolded in a bar in Sant Andreu de la Barca, near Barcelona on June 1, 2021, after midnight. The woman contacted the cops and confessed that she had cut off her boss's penis after he attempted to rape her. As a result, the authorities arrested her and took the man to a hospital. Though the bar owner was rushed for emergency surgery to stitch back his penis, it is unclear if the operation was a success. He was taken to Bellvitge Hospital, a public hospital in the town of l'Hospitalet de Llobregrat.
"A woman has been arrested for a crime of wounding following an incident around midnight at a bar in Sant Andreu de la Barca. The arrest happened in the early hours of this morning," said a spokesman for the regional Mossos d'Esquadra police force.
Another source added, "The woman was the one who contacted police to explain what had happened. She said she had cut off her boss's penis as he tried to sexually assault her," according to The Sun.

The woman, identified as a Bangladeshi national in her thirties, stated that she was abused by her boss for several months. She also revealed she was forced to have sex with him on numerous occasions. The helpless woman stated that the recent rape attempt was the final straw. The woman is currently held in custody.
Meanwhile, investigators are looking into the case and investigating the rape claims made by the woman. "Her claims are being investigated and the bar owner may be arrested once the hospital say he is well enough to be questioned," said the source.
The authorities may arrest the man after he is approved physically well. The cops have not released the man's nationality. He is believed to be from Bangladesh or Pakistan, according to New York Post.
