Sri Lanka prisoner busted with smuggled phone in rectum when it rings
A prisoner at Welikada jail in Colombo, Sri Lanka, got into trouble this week, after he attempted to hide a smuggled cell phone in his rectum.
The Agence France-Presse reports that the 58-year-old convict had concealed the phone, along with a hands-free headset, in his body cavity. The items were discovered when prison guards heard a suspicious ringing.
“The man had concealed the phone inside his person,” the official said.
“Unfortunately for him, the phone rang at the wrong time and guards knew he had a phone at the wrong end,” the unidentified guard added.
An X-ray taken of the prisoner in a local hospital reveals the phone and handset in all their glory.
No word on what happened to the phone in question.
