Husband 'bites estranged wife's nose off and eats it after she fails to return his calls'

BIZARRE: A husband has been accused of biting off his wife's nose and eating it after she failed to pick up his calls, it has been reported.

The pair, from the city of Dezhou in China, allegedly got into a fight after the woman did not answer her estranged husband’s calls after a late work shift on 6 September 2015.

Enraged, her husband allegedly stormed into her work the following day and attacked her: biting off her nose and then swallowing it, according to the People’s Daily Online.

The woman, partially identified as Ms Yang, told Shangdong Television station: “And the next thing I knew, he pushed my head towards the way and ate my nose in one go.”

Doctors have claimed the damage to Ms Yang’s nose is so severe she will require extensive surgery. Almost her entire nose, including the nasal septum, soft triangle and nose tip, were eaten.

Surgeons believe it will be at least three months before her nose can be cosmetically reconstructed.

According to local news reports Ms Yang claims her husband – who had two grown children from his previous marriage - attempted to sell the couple’s child so she could care for his grandchildren. When Ms Yang refused the couple separated, although she claims he continued to ring her regularly.
