A Queens woman tried to hire thugs to hit her body-builder hubby where it hurt – his nose job, says a man she allegedly tried to enlist in the plot.
“She wanted to break his nose because his appearance mattered so much to him,” Hugo Gomez, a former pal of the suspect, Brazilian dancer Mariliza Cotoulas, told The Post yesterday.
“She came to me and asked me to hire two guys to f – – – him up. She asked me how much it would take to beat the s- – – out of him.”
Cotoulas, 43, was busted last week on charges that included criminal solicitation. Her ex-husband, Vassili Cotoulas, 46, a muscular computer salesman, said he knew “she wanted to break my nose . . . because of my plastic surgery.”
The operation was for a pre-existing injury, according to court records.
But Vassili Cotoulas said that his ex wasn’t after only his nose. “She wanted to have me put in a coma, or a wheelchair,” he said.
He said she wanted him attacked before their divorce became final earlier this year so she could move into their home and “live here with her boyfriend.”
Mariliza, who was released without bail at her arraignment, could not be reached for comment.
The couple separated two years ago. Additional reporting by John Doyle and Dan Mangan
