The body of Akbar Salubiro, a 25-year-old man, has been found inside the belly of a seven-metre-long python in a remote Indonesian village on the island of west Sulawesi.
Salubiro, who reportedly left his home to harvest palm oil, did not get far when the incident occurred.
According to NAN, neighbours reported cries from the palm grove the night Salubiro went missing, but it wasn’t until the next day when their fear was confirmed, spokesman for police in West Sulawesi said.
When his family became concerned over the missing man’s whereabouts, they spotted the python in Salubiro’s backyard looking a little, well, full.

They found the python sprawled out in Salubiro’s own back garden on Monday night at 10pm, and feared he had been suffocated and swallowed.
His body was discovered intact inside the snake after residents sliced open its belly.
The victim was brought out lifeless, News in Colour stated.
