ANTWERP, Belgium - The wife of a businessman who died of a heart attack while using electric sex toys is suing a pair of prostitutes.

The 38-year-old man reportedly had a heart condition but asked the prostitutes to bring a sex toy that would stimulate him with electric shocks.

The lawyer representing the widow said the prostitutes encouraged the man to "drink, take drugs and have sex, although he appeared unwell." The prostitutes made no attempt to deter the man when he asked for the electric shocks, the lawyer claimed.

The electric sex toy had a label carrying a warning about the potential hazard of using excessive voltage.
