- (AFP) -- A Turkish woman locked her rich industrialist
husband naked in the bathroom for three years claiming he was mentally
disturbed, press reports said overnight after the man was released.
-
- Orhan Babutcu, 41, was found naked and traumatised sitting
on the shower tiles next to the toilet, with a bowl on the floor for his
food, the reports said.
-
- The woman, who said it was obvious her husband was mad
because he took three showers a day, added she was going to seek a divorce
after 15 years of marriage, Hurriyet daily added.
-
- "Her goal was to make me sick so that I die and
she inherits my fortune," said the husband, adding his wife, who has
two children, had been living it up with other men while he was locked
in the bathroom, Milliyet daily said.
-
- He was finally freed after his mother, alerted by neighbours,
called in the police.
-
- The wife is to be charged, while Babutcu was receiving
psychiatric help.
