The operatives of Ebonyi State Police Command has rescued a woman who was chained to a pillar by her husband identified as Mr Uche Chukwuani on Tuesday evening.
The incident which happened at No.1 Ike street left residents in shock and for the intervention of the operatives of Ekeaba police division, the woman would have been left like that.
It was gathered that the man chained her and ran away with the key because she quarreled with his mistress.
An operative said, “I had to send a welder who cut the chain. One question kept on coming to my mind, what did this woman do to warrant being chained like a dog by her own husband. Does whatever transpired warrant such dehumanization?
“Always be careful in what you do for ignorance is no excuse in law. I am always on patrol till daybreak expecting to hear from you. The Neighborhood Watch is stationed in every part of the town protecting your areas. Reach out to them for any challenges or call me,” Anakor said.
Mrs Chukwuani said her husband threatened to deal with her because his mistress was suffering.
