Police Catch India’s Infamous ‘Poop and Run’ Thief

Police in New Delhi have finally been able to capture an elusive thief who would always poop his pants when in danger to keep people away as he made his escape.

Do you know how good actors can cry on command? Well, apparently some people have the same level of control of their bowels, allowing them to defecate at any moment. Deepak, a 27-year-old phone thief from Delhi, India, was one such person, and he used his unusual gift to avoid law enforcement whenever they got close to catching him. According to a Delhi police spokesperson, Deepak evaded arrest multiple time by pooping his pants to create a stench so foul that police were repulsed giving the thief enough time to make a run for it. The dirty trick was so effective that police even named it ‘poop and run’. Deepak’s poop-fueled reign of terror finally came to an end when policemen equipped with masks and gloves apprehended him.

Woman Takes Husband to High Court for Caring More for Pet Cat Than for Her

In a case that recently scandalized the Karnataka High Court, a woman filed a cruelty case against her husband, claiming that he cared more about their pet cat than about her.

New World’s Largest Office Building Surpasses the Pentagon

The newly-opened Surat Diamond Bourse in Gujarat, India, is a massive office complex made up of nine rectangular buildings interconnected through a central “spine”.

For 80 years, the Pentagon held the title of the world’s largest building, but it was recently dethroned by the Surat Diamond Bourse, a massive diamond-cutting and trading hub, that exceeds the Pentagon’s area of 66,73,624 sqft by almost 55,000 sqft. The sprawling 15-story complex covers more than 35 acres of land on the outskirts of Surat, in India’s Gujarat state and features over 4,700 office spaces and workshops, as well as 131 large elevators that make traveling between the nine buildings of the Surat Diamond Bourse a breeze.

He complained of severe abdominal pain, and difficulty in digesting food which resulted in frequent bloating. The man had consumed street food at a night market a few days prior and suspected that to be the cause of his health problems.

What they certainly didn’t expect to find was a live cockroach chilling in the man’s small intestine.
