Man loses testicle after landlord 'goes nuts' and savagely attacks tenant in front of son on Spain's Costa del Sol

A MARBELLA man has been arrested after beating his roommate so savagely he had to have a testicle removed.

The 34-year-old had rented a room to the victim, who was married and had a child.

But according to police, he tried to kick them out ‘for no reason’ on September 12, before ‘losing it’.

An argument erupted between the two before the landlord kicked his tenant with full force in his crotch in front of his wife and son.

He then proceeded to continue hitting him as he was on the ground writhing in pain.

The wife of the victim tried to intervene but received a punch to the face.

The aggressor stormed out of the apartment but was quickly tracked down and arrested by Policia Nacional.

The victim, a middle-aged man, had to be hospitalised.

He underwent surgery to remove a testicle.

A case is proceeding in Court of Instruction two in Marbella.
