Rock python lands up in toilet in Bhandup, woman faints with shock

In a bizarre incident, a ginormous rock python was spotted in an Indian commode in the area of Bhandup. Vinay Dhoble, who resides on the ground floor of the municipal quarters in Bhandup, stepped into the washroom at midnight to spot a 7 feet long python resting in the commode. I was horrified to find a snake in the toilet. It was perched right outside the commode, he stated. Dhoble immediately latched the washroom and ran out of the room with his wife and son to inform the neighbours. Luckily, one of my neighbours, Akshay Patkar, found out the contact number of a nonprofit organisation that rescues snakes, said Dhoble, a municipal employee. We did not sleep a wink last night. Not only the boys, but my wife and I have also been equally horrified, he admitted.
