'My hot wife was a devil in disguise'

A 37-year-old man curses the day he met his beautiful girlfriend in 2011, since the "angel" started beating him mercilessly in March last year.

The man told South Africa's Daily Sun that the woman with the looks of a model covered him with scars and bite marks.

He said she unclothed him in public on Sunday and beat him with a broom.

But now she's behind bars!

Warrant Officer Llifi Ramatlo of Loate Police Station in Winterveld, north of Tshwane said the woman was arrested on Wednesday and would appear in court soon.

The troubled couple can't be named as the woman hasn't pleaded in court.

The man told the newspaper that he asked the police nearly 15 times for help, but was always turned away.

"I called Daily Sun ... to save the lives of other people, men in particular," he said.

He recalled his delight when she told him three months into their relationship that she was expecting their baby.

"She later said she had a miscarriage.

"She then forced herself on me and never waited for cleansing," he said.

"Three weeks later she told me she was pregnant again."

He said he watched her belly grow as he was excited by the thought of being a father.

But he said he got suspicious when a home pregnancy test showed she wasn't pregnant, although she insisted a clinic confirmed she was five months pregnant.

Then, last March, her big belly was "gone" -  and the beating started.

The man said she persuaded him two months ago to marry her without his parents' knowledge.

"But it was like signing my death warrant. She beat me harder."

One of the neighbours said they feared the fierce woman.

The Daily Sun crew was reportedly by his side on Tuesday when Ramatlo helped him open cases of assault.
