Indian man in Vietnam inserts live eel up his rectum as a ‘sex toy’: Doctors remove 65cm long creature after emergency abdominal surgery

On 29th July, a 31-year-old Indian man in Vietnam almost died after inserting a live eel, roughly 65cm long, inside his anus. Viet Duc Hospital in Hanoi said that its doctors performed a successful emergency operation to save the patient’s life.

On July 27th, the hospital’s emergency department received a 31-year-old male patient who was experiencing significant stomach pain. After obtaining the patient’s medical history, it was discovered that he had inserted a huge eel into his anus at noon local time on the same day. The patient was quickly examined, including imaging, testing, and an ultrasound scan. The X-ray pictures revealed a radiopaque skeleton lying horizontally in the abdominal cavity, from left to right.

Le Nhat Huy, deputy director of Viet Duc Hospital’s Colorectal and Pelvic Floor Surgery Centre, stated that the hospital immediately arranged for a team of endoscopic experts and anaesthesiologists to carry out a colonoscopy in a bid to eliminate the disturbing object through the anus.

The team opted to perform emergency surgery since they couldn’t reach the eel through the anus and the patient’s suffering was getting worse. When the physicians opened the patient’s tummy, they discovered a live eel measuring 65cm in length and 10cm in circumference. “The eel had bitten through the patient’s rectum and colon to escape into the abdominal cavity,” Huy said.

After extracting the eel, the physicians also removed a lemon from the anus. After ensuring that there were no further foreign objects, the rectum and colon holes were attached.

However, due to the severe contamination of the rectum and the presence of fecal matter in the abdominal cavity, the surgeons opted to perform a colostomy to prevent feces from passing through the newly sutured perforation. According to specialists, many people, particularly young guys, have a proclivity to seek out unexpected experiences through sex toys.

In March this year, a similar incident was reported after a 34-year-old Vietnamese man suffered stomach cramps. A live eel that had been inserted in his rectum had to be surgically removed. The unidentified man was admitted to the Hai Ha District Medical Center in Quang Ninh Province complaining of excruciating stomach cramps.

In the video, the victim woman is seen lying in a pool of blood while the 23-year-old Youth Congress leader Kuldeep Verma accuses her of cheating. “She cheated me.” These girls simply want money. How many boyfriends have you? “Ayan, Ryan, Azad, Harshit.”

‘Get the F out of here’: Harbhajan Singh reminds troll how Pakistan is unsafe country for cricketers, highlights terror attack on Sri Lankan players

On Friday (2nd August), Harbhajan Singh slammed a popular Pakistani troll named Farid Khan after he tried to mock the former Indian cricketer for pointing out that Pakistan was unsafe for cricketers.

Khan had posted screenshots from the 1st Test Match between India and Pakistan, which was held at the Gaddafi Stadium (Lahore) in January 2006. In that match, Harbhajan Singh was hit for 4 consecutive sixes by ex-Pakistani cricketer Shadid Afridi.

The Pakistani troll implied that Singh did not want the Indian cricket team to visit Pakistan out of fear of being thrashed by their batsmen. “Hi, Harbhajan Singh. This is why you have security issues in Pakistan, right?” Farid Khan tweeted.

A miffed Harbhajan Singh did not hold back from teaching the Pakistani troll – a lesson for life. He wrote, “No not for this. Cricket Mai Jeet har lagi rehti hai (Winning and losing is part of cricket). I will tell u the real problem is this . Check the photo.

The former Indian cricketer posted an image of the terror attack on Sri Lankan players by Islamic outfit Lashkar-e-Jhangvi in Lahore in 2009.

“Now get the F out of here. F ka Matlab samaj aa gya hoga ya samjau? (Did you understanding the meaning of the letter F or do I need to explain). F means your name. Please don’t think what you are thinking the meaning of F. You know what I mean. Peace,” he humbled the Pakistani troll.

A week earlier, Harbhajan Singh had highlighted security issues in Pakistan and stated that Indian players should not visit the country for the 2025 Champions Trophy.

“Why should the Indian team go to Pakistan? The security issue there is significant. The situation in Pakistan is such that incidents occur almost every day. I don’t think it’s safe to go there. The stance of the BCCI is absolutely correct, and nothing is more important than the safety of our players…” he had emphasised.

Farid Khan attempted to ridicule Singh based on his statement, only to be silenced by the former Indian cricketer on social media.

Terror attack on the Sri Lanka Team in 2009

While Pakistan continues to blame India for stalling the development of cricket in the country, the truth remains that the Pakistani army paid the price for providing a haven to terrorists.

On 3rd March 2009, the visiting Srilankan side came in the line of a deadly terror attack in Pakistan. When the attack occurred, the visitors were en route to the Qaddafi stadium in Lahore for Day 3 of the 2nd test. The target of the terrorists was the convoy of the Sri Lankan team.

Equipped with guns, hand grenades and RPGs, the Islamic terrorists stormed the Liberty Chowk in Lahore and opened fire at the convoy of cricketers.

The driver of the bus sustained gunshot wound but managed to steer the bus to safety. In the deadly attack, about 7 people were killed and 20 others were injured (including 7 Sri Lankan players).

“For some reason, I moved my head to get a better view and a split second later I felt a bullet fizz past my ear into the vacant seat,” recounted Sri Lankan cricketer Mahela Jayawardene. He thanked the bus driver for saving his life and that of the team members.

“We owe the team bus driver our lives for his remarkable bravery in the face of direct gunfire … Had he not had the courage and presence of mind to get the bus moving after the initial attack then we’d have been a far easier target for the terrorists,” Jaywardene said.

In the aftermath of the attack, Lahore police officer Haji Habibur Rehman tried to pin the blame on India and its Intelligence agency Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW) by citing a non-existent Intelligence input from the Punjab government. His claim was rubbished by the police chief Khawaja Khalid Farooq.

Wayanad landslide: Kerala govt withdraws gag order on scientists after facing severe criticism, tries to clarify their intention was to ‘prevent panic’

The Kerala government has withdrawn a gag order that was issued on August 1, preventing the scientific community from speaking about the Wayanad landslide or visiting the area, after facing severe criticism.

In a strangely worded ‘clarification’, the chief secretary of Kerala has stated that the ‘intention’ was not to restrict the scientific community from carrying out research, but to prevent scientists from sharing opinions about the landslide (to the media), because such opinions may be misrepresented or misquoted to create panic in the current situation.

Asserting that they believe the scientific studies are very important, the chief secretary’s note further said they think the studies that can throw light on the challenges faced by the state in the context of climate change are really important.

Curiously, the chief secretary’s note suggested that the government of Kerala is interested in promoting only one type of scientific study, the ones that are about ‘climate change’ challenges for the state.

This is probably an indirect dismissal of the ‘other’ type of scientific studies, especially the ones that have been repeatedly warning that widespread ecological damage, mining, logging and failure to prevent the destruction of forests and hills by the state government may be causing the natural disasters in the hilly areas of the state.

One of the studies was the widely cited Madhav Gadgil report, which had warned the state government against the damaging impact of population expansion and mining, and construction activities in the hills. Gadgil had called the 2018 Kerala floods a ‘man made disaster’.

In the now withdrawn order, Tinku Biswal, state relief commissioner and principal secretary, Kerala State Disaster Management has asked the Principal Secretary of the Department of Science and Technology to direct all science and technology institutions in Kerala not to undertake any field visits to Meppadi panchayat in Wayanad, which is notified as a disaster-affected area.

“The scientific community shall be directed to restrain themselves from sharing their opinions and study reports to the media. If any study is to be undertaken in the disaster-affected area, prior permission shall be obtained from Kerala Disaster Management Authority,” the note said.

The Kerala government faced severe criticism after the order, with many journalists, politicians, and social media users condemning the government’s hostile approach to scientists and active discouragement of scientific research in a sensitive area.

HM Amit Shah slams Kerala govt in parliament, says they ignored repeated warnings from the center about an imminent disaster

On Wednesday (31st July), Union Home Minister Amit Shah came down heavily on the Kerala government for politicising and indulging in blame game over the tragic landslides in Kerala’s Wayanad. He lambasted the Pinarayi Vijayan government and stated that the Union government gave them early warnings, several days in advance of the major calamity. He also charged the Communist government with ignoring early warning alerts issued by the Union government.

Kerala govt issues gag order banning scientists from visiting landslide-hit areas in Wayanad and sharing their studies and opinions on the disaster

As the death toll in landslides in Wayanad district in Kerala has neared 300, the state govt has issued a gag order against the scientific community from commenting on the disaster or visiting the sites. The Communist govt in the state has issued a bizarre order to all science and technology institutions in Kerala preventing them from visiting the disaster sites or sharing their opinion about the incident.

In this order, Tinku Biswal, state relief commissioner and principal secretary, Kerala State Disaster Management has asked the Principal Secretary of the Department of Science and Technology to direct all science and technology institutions in Kerala not to undertake any field visits to Meppadi panchayat in Wayanad, which is notified as a disaster-affected area.

“The scientific community shall be directed to restrain themselves from sharing their opinions and study reports to the media. If any study is to be undertaken in the disaster-affected area, prior permission shall be obtained from Kerala Disaster Management Authority,” the note said.

It stated that if any study is to be undertaken in disaster affected area, prior permission will have to be obtained from the Kerala State Disaster Management Authority.

Talking to Onmanorama, Tinku Biswal said that the move is in keeping with disaster management protocols. “Other than rescue and relief personnel, we discourage and wherever possible restrict the movement of others into and from the disaster site,” she reportedly said.

When asked about gag order on sharing studies, she said that various theories and counter-theories are being floated and that should not happen during a disaster. Tinku Biswal said, “They impact the local population. We don’t want people to be distracted by theories. It dampens the mood of the population. If at all any study needs to be done, that can be done later.”

Notably, the direction has been issued by the same Pinarayi Vijayan government which prides itself for promoting science and technology and steering Kerala on the path to a full-fledged ‘knowledge economy.’

As per latest reports, the death toll in the landslides have reached at least 296 and over 200 are injured. Around 240 people are still missing.

Children filed FIR against parents for restricting use of phone, TV and living with aunt since 2021, Madhya Pradesh HC stays proceedings in trial court

Indore bench of Madhya Pradesh High Court put a stay on proceedings of the trial court in a case filed by children against their parents for restricting usage of mobile phones and TV.

A brother-sister duo, an eight-year-old boy and a 21-year-old girl, registered a case against their parents at Chandan Nagar police station in October 2021 alleging that their parents used to forbid them from using mobile phones and watching TV during the lockdown period.

The police had arrested the parents and also presented the challan before the district court. Recently, the father of the children, Ajay Chouhan filed a petition before the Indore Bench of MP High Court to dismiss the case under Section 482 CrPC.

“A 21-year-old girl and her eight-year-old brother had lodged an FIR against their parents at Chandan Nagar police station in Indore in October 2021. The police had registered a case under sections 323, 342, 506 and 34 of Indian Penal Code (IPC) and sections 75 and 82 of Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act,” said Dharmendra Chaudhary, lawyer on behalf of parents.

The children alleged that their parents harassed them, deprived them of food, and forbade them to watch TV, especially not letting them use mobile phones. There were other issues in the house as well. Due to this, the children went to live at their aunt’s (Bua) house, and after that, they lodged an FIR. After completing the investigation, Chandan Nagar Police presented the challan before the district court, Chaudhary said

“Recently, the main accused in the case, father of the children, Ajay Chouhan had filed a petition before the Indore Bench of MP High Court under section 482 CrPC in the case. On hearing the matter on July 25, the High Court stayed the proceedings of the trial court,” he said.

Interrogation required, allegations serious: Delhi court rejects former trainee IAS officer Puja Khedkar’s anticipatory bail plea

Interrogation required, allegations serious: Delhi court rejects former trainee IAS officer Puja Khedkar’s anticipatory bail plea

On 1st August, a Delhi court denied the request for anticipatory release submitted by Puja Khedkar, a former trainee IAS officer who has been charged with document fabrication and fraud in order to get selected for the Civil Service Examination. The development transpired one day after her candidacy was permanently revoked by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) amid intense controversy. Khedkar requested the anticipatory bail “to establish her innocence” and stated during the hearing that she was being singled out for the reason of reporting an officer for sexual harassment. The application was denied by the prosecution, who argued that she had “cheated the system” on multiple occasions.

The court ordered the investigating agencies to determine if an insider’s role enabled her to be appointed despite her phoney handicap and Other Backward Class (OBC) certificates and the probe must be conducted fairly. “The investigation agency needs to widen the scope of the investigation. The agency is directed to find out the candidates recommended (by the UPSC) in the recent past who have availed benefits beyond permissible age limit under OBC quota and those who availed Persons with Benchmark Disabilities benefits despite not being entitled to it,” declared Patiala House Court’s additional sessions judge Devender Kumar Jangala.

The court added, “I am of the considered opinion that the allegations against the applicant/accused Puja Manorama Dilip Khedkar are grave and serious which requires thorough investigation. Custodial interrogation of the applicant/accused is required to unearth the whole conspiracy and to establish the involvement of the other persons involved in the conspiracy. In the present facts and circumstances, I am of the considered opinion that it is not a fit case to exercise discretionary powers of anticipatory bail in favour of the applicant/accused.”

Devender Kumar Jangala remarked that Delhi Police “must also investigate if anyone from inside the UPSC helped Khedkar.” The court directed, “Hence the investigating agency (Delhi Police) is directed to conduct its investigation in all fairness to find out the candidates recommended in recent past (a) who have illegally availed the attempts beyond permissible limits; (b) who have obtained the OBC (non-creamy layer) benefit, despite not being entitled; (c) who had obtained the benefits of persons with benchmark disability, despite being not entitled and (d) the investigating agency shall also find out whether some insider from the complainant side has also helped the applicant to attain her illegal goals.”

The court further ordered UPSC to gather information regarding candidates who illegally claimed the Persons with Benchmark Disabilities quota and about other candidates who received OBC quota advantages without being in the non-creamy layer. The Commission and the Delhi Police, who have opened a case against Khedkar based on a complaint from the UPSC, contended on 31st July that the trainee IAS officer had “breached the integrity of the system,” necessitating her detention for interrogation.

Puja Khedkar has been charged by UPSC for “fraudulently availing attempts beyond the permissible limit under the Examination Rules by faking her identity by way of changing her address, email address, mobile number, and father’s and mother’s names, as well as her photograph and signature.” The 34-year-old was selected as an IAS officer in the 2023 batch of the Maharashtra cadre.

The UPSC had lodged a case with the Delhi police alleging that Puja manufactured false statements, produced counterfeit identification to appear for the civil services test more than she was eligible to, and altered the names and identities of her parents, Manorama and Dilip Khedkar. Puja Khedkar became embroiled in a controversy after her conversations with an official came to light, during which she repeatedly insisted on having a separate office cabin, a car, and good accommodations even though she was not qualified for any of these while she was on probation.

Atul Srivastava, the public prosecutor, stated that the matter is “at a very nascent stage” and that further investigation into it is necessary, thus she must be questioned while in custody. “These kinds of persons who cheat the system must be dealt with very seriously. This person has abused the process of law,” he submitted and added that there was still a possibility that she would continue to abuse the law.

‘Entire Police Chowki suspended, DCP, ADCP, ASP removed’: UP CM Yogi Adityanath on Gomti Nagar harassment case, says women’s safety is top priority

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath informed the state assembly on Thursday that the entire team at a police station has been suspended over the incident of harassment of women on a waterlogged street in Lucknow. He also said that the culprits have been identified and two of them have been arrested, Pawan Yadav and Mohammed Arbaaz.

He further said, “Ye hain aapke sadbhavna wale log? Inke liye sadbhavna train chalayenge? Inke liye bullet train chalegi ab, aap chinta mat karo,” 

CM Yogi said that people who harass women will not be spared, and announced action against police for failing to protect women. He added, “Women’s safety is a major issue for us, and we have assured every sister and daughter that we take this seriously.”

He said, “We have taken this incident seriously. And the result of taking it seriously is that entire chowki has been suspended. Inspector has been suspended, ASP, DCP, everyone has been removed and actions have been initiated against them”.

“Anyone attempting to create chaos will face the consequences. I urge you to ensure your people abide by the law,” the CM added.

The action was taken against cops after videos of several youths harassing commuters on a waterlogged road in Lucknow’s Gomti Nagar went viral. The youths were splashing water on two-wheeler riders who were passing through the area.

In one video, they were seen harassing a man and his sister on a motorcycle. They surrounded the motorcycle, and some of the culprits pulled back the two-wheeler, causing it to fall. While the rider tries to move ahead, the woman falls to the ground, and at least one man in the crowd groped her.

In other videos, the vandals were seen vandalising cars, breaking streetlights, and pushing bikers into waterlogged roads, causing outrage among netizens. Police promptly intervened after the video went viral, dispersing the mob with batons.

After the incident, while a probe was launched against the culprits, action was also taken against cops over negligence in duty. The local Station House Officer, the in-charge of the police outpost, and all police personnel present at the outpost have been suspended.

The suspended cops are Inspector in-charge Deepak Kumar Pandey, Chowki in-charge Rishi Vivek, Sub-Inspector Kapil Kumar and Constables Dharmveer and Virendra Kumar. Apart from that, the Deputy Commissioner of Police (East Lucknow) Prabal Pratap Singh, Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police Amit Kumawat, and Assistant Deputy Commissioner Anshu Jain of Police were immediately removed from their positions.

Lucknow Police Commissioner Amrendra Sengar said that action was taken against the cops due to evident negligence.

The incident took place under the Taj Hotel bridge in posh Gomti Nagar area in Lucknow on Lucknow. An FIR was registered after the incident at the Gomti Nagar police station. So far four accused have been arrested, and the search for the rest is on.  The accused have been booked under sections 191(2) (rioting) and 74 (assault or use of criminal force with intent to outrage modesty) and other relevant provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.

Apart from Pawan Yadav and Mohammed Arbaaz, the other two arrested are Sunil Kumar and Viraj Sahu.

Delhi coaching centre deaths: SUV driver arrested for ‘splashing floodwater inside basement’ released on bail, police drops culpable homicide charges

Delhi coaching centre deaths: SUV driver arrested for ‘splashing floodwater inside basement’ released on bail, police drops culpable homicide charges

Manuj Kathuria, the SUV driver detained in connection with the deaths of three IAS aspirants within the basement of a coaching center in Old Rajender Nagar in Delhi, was released on bail on Thursday, 1st August. He was granted bail on a bond of ₹50,000 by Additional Sessions Judge Rakesh Kumar.

This comes after the Delhi Police informed the court on Thursday that they decided to swap the SUV driver’s more serious allegation of culpable homicide not amounting to murder in the coaching center death case.

The investigating officer (IO) informed Additional Sessions Judge Rakesh Kumar of the conscious choice to drop the case, who was hearing an appeal against the magisterial court’s refusal of bail to the SUV driver Manuj Kathuria on Wednesday.

Yesterday the Delhi’s Tis Hazari court dismissed the bail pleas of Manuj Kathuria along with four owners of the property. While dismissing the bail application of accused Manuj Kathuria, the judge had said, “Perusal of CCTV footage of the alleged incident shows that the driver can be seen driving the vehicle on an already heavily waterlogged road at a speed causing large displacement of water, resulting in the gate of the alleged premises giving way. Water entered the basement, leading to the loss of three innocent lives.”

The police had objected to the bail plea in the court yesterday. But today the police changed its position on the SUV driver, and dropped the harshed charge of ‘culpable homicide not amounting to murder’ against him, paving way for his bail.

“During the further investigation, as carried out in the proceedings 48 hrs, it has transpired that the ingredients of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) section 105 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) is, at this stage, not being sufficiently established,” the IO said explaining the reason for dropping the charge.

However, Manuj Kathuria is still booked under Section 281 of BNS, which is for rash driving or riding on public way. The police added that the cause of the flooding of the basement can be better assessed when the expert team from IIT-Delhi visits the spot and submits a report based on the findings.

Kathuria was charged with driving his Force Gurkha car across a rain-soaked roadway, allegedly causing the water to surge and breach the gates of the three-story structure that houses the coaching center, flooding the basement.

Yesterday, Shima Kathuria, wife of Manuj defended her husband saying that he was just trying to reach a safe spot amid heavy rains. “There was no rash driving, the video is in front of everyone. My husband was not driving at a high speed,” she said.

“The coaching institute owner was running a library there when they had a NOC only for storage. When there was severe waterlogging on the roads, police should have cordoned off the roads,” she added.

Heavy rain on Saturday, 27th July caused floods in the coaching center’s library, killing three IAS candidates. The library is located in the basement of the building, and approximately 20 students were trapped. While 17 were retrieved on time, three drowned.

Preliminary investigations into the incident have revealed several infractions by the building and coaching center’s owners, including using the basement without proper clearance and lying to acquire a certificate from the fire department. The library was allegedly locked with biometric security, which failed and the door could not be unlocked due to power failure caused by the flood water.

Atul Garg, chief of Delhi Fire Services, stated that there was no way to remove the water from the basement.

Notably, the Delhi High Court had criticised the Delhi Police for arresting the driver, calling it a strange probe. A bench comprising acting chief justice Manmohan and justice Tushar Rao Gedela said that police arrested a passerby, but no action was taken against MCD officials. “Delhi Police has arrested the passerby, a driver. It seems that someone has lost it. The police officers who are investigating the same, what are they doing? Only one MCD official has gone to jail. Someone needs to be held accountable at the end of the day. You (MCD) need to fix responsibility,” the court said.
