Domestic abuse is not ok.
A Thai woman’s post on social media garnered attention when she exposed her abusive husband who hit her to the point of miscarriage.
According to China Press, the 36-year-old woman was working at a massage parlour, where she met her (now) husband, who’s younger than her by 10 years. She was happy to have found herself a partner and decided to leave her job to become a housewife.
But who knew the husband would be lazy and jobless? He made her go back to work with a pregnant belly!
Apalah ni?!
He also demanded money from her the whole time, while he stayed at home doing nothing.
The wife saved an amount of money for the husband to set up his curry business. But his curry business failed, and her money went to waste. She didn’t want to lose her money anymore, so she refused to give him any, which resulted in arguments and he would beat her up.
In a recent fight, he requested money from her again, but because he didn’t get the amount he wanted, he beat her up.
This time, she felt an excruciating pain in her abdomen, and a lot of blood dripped onto the ground! A developing fetus was seen lying in the pool of blood.
WARNING: Following pictures may cause discomfort.
Right after it happened, she decided that she had enough of the abuse. After taking photos of her wounds and the aborted fetus, she then left for the hospital.
It’s reported that she has two children, one with her ex-husband, and one with the current one. Both of the children are at her mother-in-law’s house. She hasn’t been able to see or contact them for days, and she’s anxious about her older child (a daughter of her ex-husband). It would be difficult for her to live in such a hostile environment.
Netizens commented that instead of posting this incident on social media, she should’ve reported to the police.
The police stated that they have seen her social media post but have yet to receive her report. They are trying to contact both the woman and her abusive husband.
This piece of saddening news reminds us that no woman would be spared in abusive relationships. Please look out for your fellow sisters and be there for them when they need help the most. Any form of abuse — bein physical or mental — is not ok.
