Doctors of a government-run hospital in Rajasthan’s Udaipur were in for a shock when they found 80 items including a chillum, keys and coins inside a patient’s stomach on Monday. Four doctors undertook the operation which lasted about 90 minutes, news agency ANI reported.

“We were stunned to see small and big metal objects including nails inside his stomach,” Dr DK Sharma was quoted as saying by ANI. The photos released by the doctors revealed smoking pipes, several coins, pieces of cloth, safety pin a long wire, a bunch of keys and other solid objects.
