India Police forcefully feed thief bananas to retrieve gold chain
The police in India successfully deployed an unusual technique to retrieve a gold chain that a thief had swallowed while officers were in hot pursuit ˆ' they force-fed him more than 40 bananas.😳😳😳
The man denied snatching the chain from a woman in the street in Mumbai and swallowed it in a desperate bid to conceal his crime last week, but hospital X-rays suggested otherwise.
Police in the western Indian city administered an enema which failed to yield the desired result.
Doctors said an operation would be the best way forward, but police officers decided it would be too expensive and opted instead for the bananas.
“He was fed more than 40 bananas throughout the day,” Mumbai police Senior Inspector Shankar Dhanavade told AFP.
