Missing Indonesian woman’s body found inside a python
A 54-year-old woman who had gone missing in a remote village in Indonesia was found dead in the stomach of a seven-meter-long python this week.
The victim, from a village on the Indonesian island of Sumatra, had reportedly gone into the family’s plantation alone. When she failed to return home on Sunday night her husband went out looking for her, Indonesia’s Bernama news agency reported.
The husband searched the area throughout the night and found her sandals, her knife, headscarf and jacket.
On Monday morning her husband and relatives came across the python slithering along uncomfortably with a swollen midsection.
The search group killed the snake and cut it open, where they found the missing woman’s body.
In 2017 a farmer was also found dead inside the stomach of a python in Indonesia.
