‘Inseparable’ couple referred to hospital for separation

Husband said to have asked bomoh to ‘lock’ wife’s body when she committed adultery

SIBU: A couple was said to have sought medical help last Saturday after their bodies became “inseparable” in an intimate relationship while they were romancing at a beach in Mukah last Saturday night.

In the romantic affair, the couple was said to have become helpless, and when they found no way to separate their bodies, they called for help from a friend.

Their friend came to wrap them in a ‘sarung’ and send them to the hospital in Mukah. The hospital in the coastal town referred the couple to Sibu.

The medical staff members here were informed of the incident, but in their journey to the hospital here, the bodies of the couple ‘loosened up’, and the vehicle that took them here turned back to their hometown.

Following the incident, the news spread in Mukah. Some curious readers even called the reporters for confirmation of the case.

A medical staff member here, who refused to reveal his identity, said they did receive the notification of the referral case from Mukah, “but the locked-together couple did not turn up”.

According to a source, the man and the woman were both in their 30s. It was said that they were both married.

When the husband of the woman was out of town last weekend, the couple got together for a night of romance.

The source also claimed that the husband of the woman had earlier been suspicious of his wife whenever he was not in town.

To catch her in the act, he was said to have sought help from a bomoh to “lock her body up with the man” when they committed adultery.

Chairman of Malaysia Medical Association, Sibu Sub-branch Dr Hu Chang Hock, when contacted, confirmed that such cases known medically as varinismus did occur, but the occurrences were rare.

“It normally happens when the couple making love are psychologically anxious. For example, the situation could happen when a couple is having an illegitimate affair.”

He said before the occurrence, there was a painful vaginal muscle contraction and spasm, “and this virtually locks the two bodies together, making them inseparable.”

On ways to avoid it, he said the advice should come from a psychologist.

On medical treatment, he said the woman could be given muscle relaxant injection to let the muscles in her body relax.

He said no such case had ever been referred to him.
