A German man facing manslaughter charges for killing his wife in a 48-hour BDSM sex session days after their wedding has been declared fit to stand trial.

A court spokesman in the city of Krefeld in the western German state of North Rhine-Westphalia confirmed that a psychiatric report shows the accused is fully accountable for his actions, and there are no indications to suggest he should be exempt from criminal responsibility.

Just days after their wedding, Ralph Jankus, 52, and his wife Christel, 49, enjoyed a mammoth 48-hour sex session during which time the victim suffered severe internal injuries after a sharp object was allegedly inserted into her.

When emergency services were eventually called four days later, there was nothing they could do to save the victim.

Self-confessed sadomasochism fan Jankus faces manslaughter charges at the court in Krefeld for failing to call for help, although he claims he was not aware his wife was seriously ill.

However, the public prosecutor believes that Jankus must have been aware of his wife’s condition and that her life was in danger.

When questioned, he told police the sex had been consensual and that he has been taking part in BDSM sessions for the past 30 years.

According to reports, he told police that he loved his wife dearly and instead of going on a honeymoon they opted for a steamy sex session lasting two days.

Jankus reportedly said that his wife had previously complained about discomfort and had been to see a specialist who carried out a colonoscopy, but nothing had been found wrong with her.

Forensic specialists came to the conclusion that the woman must have had some sort of barbed hook inserted into her and when it was removed it perforated her bowel.

The victim’s 30-year-old son, who has not been named, claimed his mother had been abused as a child and was mentally unstable.

He said his mother was dominated by her new husband and had started wearing clothes to cover up alleged injuries.

According to local media, she had previously reported her partner for abuse in 2017, but later withdrew her complaint and spent some time in a psychiatric clinic.

Her son claims that she fled to a women’s shelter in 2018, before returning happier and wanting to marry her partner in July of the same year.

He said: “She had injuries over her whole body and especially in her genital area.

“I warned her that she was putting up with too much and that it should never have gone this far.”

He claims that Jankus “abused, mistreated and humiliated” his mother, but added: “I do think she loved him though.”

The son’s unnamed partner, who is also a court witness, said: “We had no idea about the violence at first, but over time it became more apparent.

“She was not allowed to leave the apartment and was forced to take drugs. She was beaten for going to the hairdressers without permission.”

Just days after proudly announcing his marriage on social media, Ralph posted: “I want to thank you all for the goodwill messages on our wedding day. Unfortunately, I have to tell you that my dear wife died suddenly just eight days after our wedding. All the happiness I have experienced was during the years with my wife.”

The couple had been together since 2011.

The trial is ongoing.
