A suspect swallowed nearly $50,000 in cash in a failed attempt to smuggle the funds out of Colombia, officials said Monday.

Bogota airport police said they X-rayed the suspect because he was acting nervous while preparing to board a flight for Lima, Peru.

The photo showed dozens of latex-wrapped packets inside his stomach and police assumed it was drugs, since such a smuggling technique is used by traffickers.

But as the suspect passed the packages from his body, police discovered they were filled with cash – $47,500.

Hmmmm… but they didn’t explain how the money was removed.

(Zanbia) – A 50-year-old Zambian man has hanged himself after his wife found him having sex with a hen, police said. The woman caught him in the act when she rushed into their house to investigate a noise. “He attempted to kill her but she managed to escape,” a police spokesman said. The man from the town of Chongwe, about 30 miles east of Lusaka, killed himself after being admonished by other villagers. The hen was slaughtered after the incident.
