Sri Lankan authorities have arrested a man for allegedly smuggling gold bars in his rectum.
Customs officers at Bandaranaike International Airport stopped the 42-year-old man after noticing that he was walking suspiciously.
He had arrived in Sri Lanka at around 1.30am on Tuesday on a flight from Singapore.
During an examination officials found 400g of gold, worth about 2m Sri Lankan rupees (£9,351), inside the suspect's rectal cavity.
Sri Lanka's The Nation newspaper reports that the gold had been in the form of four slabs. The report also said that the man claims to be the 'Coordinating Secretary to the Ministry of Post, Postal Services and Muslim Religious Affairs'.
More than 70 people have been arrested this year for smuggling gold in Sri Lanka, officials said.

Guess that knocks out any insult referring to the person crapping out gold.

Gotta wonder how exactly he was walking with almost a pound of gold in there.
Guess he won’t be making it to the rectory on Rekdal Road on Camano Island, WA anytime soon!
(Yes, it’s a real road. You can look it up yourself!)
