A woman cut off her boyfriend’s penis with a pair of garden shears because he showed their sex tape to his friends, it has been reported.

Brenda Barattini, 26, faces a trial after she allegedly cut off her 40-year-old boyfriend Sergio Fernandez’s penis last November.

He had 90% of his penis cut off while he was asleep, leaving a trail of blood throughout his home in the city of Cordoba in Argentina.

In an interview with a journalist, Barattini has claimed she hacked at his genitals with a pair of scissors because he shared an intimate video of the pair with his friends.

She reportedly said: “I cut his penis but not completely: I injured him. It wasn’t complete: I injured him.

“They didn’t find the video, I don’t know what happened.”

She added: “I left to ask for help. I did not want anything to happen to him. Besides, I was afraid of the blood.”

Barattini said her former boyfriend had caused her psychological distress.

Felipe Trucco, a lawyer for Mr Fernandez, said his client needs more surgery after suffering the shocking injuries.

He lost a large amount of blood and was rushed to hospital after the alleged attack.

Barattini is currently behind bars without the chance of bail while she awaits her trial.
