MULTAN, Pakistan (Reuters) - Fateh Mohammad, a prison inmate in Pakistan, says he woke up last weekend with a glass lightbulb in his anus.

Wednesday night, doctors brought Mohammad's misery to an end after a one-and-a-half hour operation to remove the object.

"Thanks Allah, now I feel comfort. Today, I had my breakfast. I was just drinking water, nothing else," Mohammad, a grey-beared man in his mid-40s, told Reuters from a hospital bed in the southern central city of Multan.

"We had to take it out intact," said Dr. Farrukh Aftab at Nishtar Hospital. "Had it been broken inside, it would be a very very complicated situation."

Mohammad, who is serving a four-year sentence for making liquor, prohibited for Muslims, said he was shocked when he was first told the cause of his discomfort. He swears he didn't know the bulb was there.

"When I woke up I felt a pain in my lower abdomen, but later in hospital, they told me this," Mohammad said.

"I don't know who did this to me. Police or other prisoners."

The doctor treating Mohammad said he'd never encountered anything like it before, and doubted the felon's story that someone had drugged him and inserted the bulb while he was comatose.

2. I'm sorry, but I would have to either be drugged

Or knocked out cold in order not to know that a light bulb was being inserted into my ass. Methinks that there is more to this story than the gentleman is saying.

3. "I don't know who did this to me. Police or other prisoners."

Right. An emergency room physician friend once told me that the object he most frequently has to remove from asses are light bulbs. He showed me an xray of a guy who had tried to insert a string of Xmas tree lights in his ass. Apparently he had to stop at four when one separated from the wire.

8. How many Pakistani inmates does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

:think:

Two. One to hold the lightbulb and the other to turn the comatose prisoner victim's anus around it.
