RAUTAHAT, MARCH 09

Rautahat police have arrested one person in connection with an incident wherein a man was detected with a vodka bottle in his stomach during medical check-up. Police have detained Shekh Samim of Gujara Municipality and launched necessary investigation.

Twenty-six-year-old Nursad Mansuri of Ward No 9, Gujara Municipality, was admitted to the hospital following complaints of severe stomach-ache. The medical technician found a liquor bottle inside his stomach while conducting ultrasound.

Following the bizzare diagnosis, the man underwent surgery that lasted more than two-and-a half hours five days ago at Bharatpur Medical College in which doctors extracted the bottle. According to doctors, Nursad is out of danger.

"The bottle had ripped apart his intestine, causing leakage of faeces and swelling of intestines," doctors said, adding, "Apparently, the bottle was forced into the man's stomach through his rectum, and luckily, the rectum wasn't harmed. Police interrogated a few of Nursad's friends while investigating.

"As we had suspected Samim, we kept him in custody and are investigating," said Area Police Office of Chandrapur.

"A few of Nursad's other friends are at large and we are searching for them," said SP Bir Bahadur Budha Magar of Rautahat.

Police surmised that Nursad's friends might have got him drunk and forced a bottle into his stomach through his rectum.
