Missing woman found inside python after 3 days of being eaten alive

NEW DELHI: In a tragic incident, a 45-year-old woman named Farida has been found dead inside the stomach of a reticulated python in Kalempang village, South Sulawesi province, central Indonesia.
The snake, measuring approximately five metres (16 feet) in length, had swallowed her whole, according to village head Suardi Rosi.
Farida, a mother of four, had gone missing on Thursday night and did not return home.Her husband became suspicious after finding her belongings and alerted the villagers, who then initiated a search effort.
They soon located a python with a noticeably large belly. “They agreed to cut open the python’s stomach. As soon as they did, Farida’s head was immediately visible,” said Suardi, a villager. Farida was found fully clothed inside the snake.
Although such occurrences are considered extremely rare, several people in Indonesia have lost their lives in recent years after being swallowed whole by pythons.
In 2022, residents of Tinanggea district in Southeast Sulawesi killed an eight-metre python that was found strangling and consuming one of the local farmers.
Similarly, in 2018, a 54-year-old woman was discovered dead inside a seven-metre python in Muna town, Southeast Sulawesi. The previous year, a farmer in West Sulawesi went missing and was later found to have been eaten alive by a four-metre python at a palm oil plantation.
