A PROSTITUTE has appeared in court in Zimbabwe charged with assault after she bit the penis of a client who refused to pay her.
Wadzanai Marimo, 34, admitted the assault of one of her regular clients, Brian Shumba, 38, at Gweru Magistrate's Court on Tuesday.
According to police, the pair had been drinking together at a nightclub in Gweru on Monday night before going back to Marimo's house.
In the bedroom, a dispute broke out after Shumba allegedly refused to pay Marimbo for her services, magistrate Florence Nago heard.
Marimo then bit the end off Mr Shumba's organ, leaving him bleeding profusely, before spitting it out in her garden.
Several hours later, the unfortunate patron was found unconscious and taken to the Gweru Provincial Hospital.
On Tuesday, he shuffled into court, in obvious discomfort, and to a chorus of giggles, to give evidence about his injuries.
Police assistant Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko said he could confirm that a "34-year-old woman bit off her boyfriend's male organ" on Monday night at her home.
Marimo will be sentenced this week.
