When women discover themselves to be HIV+, in many cases transmitted to them by their errant husbands, it’s more or less the end of any sex life they might have had. Not for this man though. This HIV+ auto driver in Hyderabad has shocked the police with his admission that he intentionally had sex with over 300 women, including several housewives, after he came to know of his condition.
It’s infuriating that women continue to be targeted for everything in this manner. One man contracts HIV, as a result of his own actions, and he decides to punish women for it in this sickening manner.
The police discovered this unpleasant bit of truth in the midst of another case where a software engineer from Seven Hills Colony in Uppal complained that 60 gm of gold jewellery was stolen from his house, when he and his wife were away on work. Merwya Carl had entrusted the house keys to his friends, the auto driver being one of them.
The driver, a resident of Mirjalguda in Malkajgiri, allegedly confessed to the crime and the police recovered the stolen booty from his possession. When the police grilled him further he revealed a shocking truth.
“He also confessed that he has been suffering from HIV disease, which he came to know about several months ago. The auto driver also claimed he visits prostitutes daily and has illicit affairs with several other women, with whom he practiced unsafe sex even after realising about his disease,” TOI quoted Uppal inspector (Detective) Khaja Moinuddin.ng.
He was remanded to judicial custody.
The New Indian Express reported that the man, on realising that his days were numbered, decided to “live life to the fullest”. He was married thrice, but his wives eventually abandoned him.
