Kathmandu, Mar 10: A 26-year-old man in Nepal had to undergo surgery to get a Vodka bottle removed from his stomach, leading to the arrest of a person, according to a media report on Friday.

The Vodka bottle was found during a medical check-up after Nursad Mansuri of Gujara Municipality in Rautahat district complained of severe abdominal pain.

He was admitted to a hospital five days ago and underwent a two-and-a-half hour-long surgery for the successful extraction of the bottle, The Himalayan Times newspaper reported.

''The bottle had ripped apart his intestine, causing leakage of faeces and swelling of his intestines but now, he is out of danger,'' a doctor said.

According to police, Nursad's friends might have got him drunk and forced a bottle into his stomach through his rectum.

It is suspected that the bottle was forced into Nursad's stomach through his rectum, which was luckily not harmed, the report said.

Rautahat Police have arrested one Sheikh Samim in connection with the incident and have also interrogated a few of Nursad's friends.

''As we suspect Samim, we kept him in custody and are investigating,'' the Area Police Office of Chandrapur was quoted as saying.

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

Further investigation is underway, the report said.

Sakti (Chhattisgarh) (PTI): The Chhattisgarh police on Thursday registered an FIR against Vedanta Group chairman Anil Agarwal and others in connection with the blast at the firm's power plant in Sakti district that claimed 20 lives, an official said.

The explosion occurred on April 14 at the Vedanta plant in Singhitarai village when a steel tube carrying high-pressure steam from the boiler to the turbine burst, leaving several workers with severe burn injuries. The incident claimed 20 lives and left 16 persons injured.

A case has been registered at Dabhra police station under sections 106 (causing death by negligence), 289 (negligent conduct with respect to machinery) and 3(5) (common intention) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, Sakti Superintendent of Police Prafull Thakur said.

"Eight to ten individuals, including Vedanta Group chairman Anil Agarwal, have been named in the FIR. If more persons are found responsible during the investigation, their names will be added," Thakur told PTI.

Investigation into the incident is underway and several reports are awaited, including post-mortem reports of the deceased and findings from the forensic science laboratory and the industrial health and safety department, he said.

"A technical team has also been constituted to probe the cause of the blast. Further sections will be added if required after all reports are received," the SP said.

Following the incident, the opposition Congress had demanded registration of an FIR against the plant management and a judicial inquiry into it.
