Residents of a village in Indonesia were suspicious that a python had eaten their neighbour so they cut it open and found the woman's body inside, according to the local police chief

ALOR SETAR (Bernama): It was a feat indeed for it took the might of three women to wrestle a 10m-long python which they finally captured at a chicken coop in Kampung Jelutong, near Padang Terap in the wee hours of the morning.

It all started with a rooster crowing at the unearthly hour of about 2am Thursday (May 30) which awoke its owner, said Padang Terap District Civil Defence Force (APM) Officer Lt Mohd Shukri Shuib.
