Riyadh - Surgeons have reattached the penis of a Saudi man who paid the price for trying to have sex with his Filipina maid and she attacked him with a knife, said a hospital source on Monday.

A spokesperson at Riyadh's Takhassusi Hospital said: "This is a sophisticated operation. You are dealing with an organ in a difficult area and you want to try to return it to its efficiency."

Earlier this month it was reported that the maid removed her employer's manhood after he tried to molest her in the middle of the night as his wife was sleeping. The maid is in police custody.

The spokesperson said: "It's one of the rare cases... but they did it (the operation) last week and it went smoothly.

"The hospital has done this kind of operation before, but only after people had car accidents."
