Bermudez tried to flee but was stopped by locals who handed her over to the cops, while the victim was rushed to hospital by the police, who said that the victim had also suffered a deep wound to his left thigh, which had severed a major artery and he died.

Jose had previously reported his partner for assault but nothing had been done about it, local media said.

The head of the La Libertad Police Region, General Guillermo Llerena, told local media: "In Pataz there has been an incident that was motivated by passion. A female person has learned that her partner has been cheating on her and she has taken an attitude that is not appropriate, which does not correspond to the fact, and has cut off this person's testicles."

Now Jose's family are demanding justice and the maximum possible punishment. Bermudez was taken to jail and remains in custody. The police are investigating the incident.
