A man who was stabbed 13 times by his girlfriend proposed to her in court as she was about to be sentenced and begged the judge not to jail her.
The man – named Shakur – was nearly murdered in the frenzied knife attack, and only survived because he managed to flee the scene, Russian state prosecutor Airat Bikmurzin told the court in Nizhnekamsk.
As the woman stood and faced the judge, Shakur proposed to her in the court, according to a report from NTR-24 TV.
He appealed to the judge for leniency and said they intended to arrange the date of their wedding.
The Russian judge postponed a decision on sentencing until a future hearing, according to reports.
