A pregnant woman in Uganda who was hospitalized for contracting malaria was caught red-handed by her husband engaging in sexual intercourse with a 24-year-old man.
According to the Daily Monitor, the pregnant woman committed the offence at the Apac Hospital’s female ward where she had been hospitalised. She was reportedly caught in the act by her husband who had paid her a surprise visit.
“I made a surprise visit to the hospital to check on my wife and found a man in bed with her,” said Alex Okuta, the aggrieved husband.
Police have confirmed the incident and say they intend to charge the woman with being a public nuisance.
“We have preferred charges of causing public nuisance against the suspect, but we are still investigating and will update you at an appropriate time,” said David Ndawula, Apac District police commander.
But Joseph Onuk, the hospital’s administrator, has blamed Okuta for the incident.
Onuk argues the incident would not have happened at the hospital if Okuta regularly checked up on his wife for the five days she had been hospitalized.
“How can you send your wife to the hospital and take long without checking on her? Some men always say that they are so busy. Somebody who is not busy will take away your wife,” he said.
The 24-year-old man who was caught in the act sells roast meat in Apac town.
