dailyrecord.co.ukA husband launched a terrifying revenge attack on his lover after she confessed about their affair to his pregnant wife, a court has heard.Arfan Hussein, 31, allegedly started on the woman with a butter knife and repeatedly kicked and punched her, accusing her of wrecking his life.
She was said to have suffered a fractured eye-socket that was surgically repaired with a titanium plate, as well as two broken ribs and injuries to her ear, hand and head, Leicestershire Live writes.
Prosecutor, Paul Prior, told Leicester Crown Court : "The defendant had a relationship with the complainant whilst married to another woman and she told his wife about the affair. "He went to her home and attacked her causing really serious harm and it involved a knife, albeit not the longest or sharpest knife, but it was so ferocious and terrifying that she climbed onto her roof in order to escape the attack." The incident allegedly happened at the woman's bedsit in the Saffron Lane area of Leicester on the afternoon of Wednesday, July 14 last year - about seven weeks after she is said to have revealed the affair.
Hussein, of Maynard Road, Spinney Hills, also known as Blue, denies intentionally inflicting grievous bodily harm.He allegedly turned up at her address, accompanied by two other people, and burst into the flat, where the complainant was unwell, lying on a futon in her dressing gown.She was being looked after by a male friend, who had fetched her painkillers for aches and pains.She was diagnosed with Covid-19 when admitted to hospital later that day, the court heard.
