Doctors in China were left with a puzzling medical case after a man arrived at the hospital complaining of discomfort while urinating and blood in his urine.

Despite his symptoms, the man’s vital signs were stable, and he showed no other obvious signs of distress.

However, an imaging test revealed something unusual near his heart. Doctors subsequently ordered a contrast-enhanced CT scan to get a clearer view of the suspected object.

The scan revealed multiple “needle-like metallic foreign bodies” lodged in different parts of his body.

One of the most concerning findings was a 1.4-inch metallic pin that had pierced the pericardium, the fluid-filled sac surrounding the heart.

Doctors were unable to determine how the objects had entered his body. The man, who had a history of intellectual disability dating back to childhood, could not provide an explanation, while his father, who serves as his legal caregiver, was also unaware of how the objects got there.

However, doctors discovered that the man had previously undergone treatment at another hospital two years earlier, where two foreign objects had been removed from his abdomen.

The history led doctors to suspect a condition known as self-embedding, a form of non-suicidal self-injury in which a person deliberately inserts foreign objects into the body.

The case presented a major challenge because removing the objects could potentially cause further damage, particularly those located close to vital organs.

Doctors therefore decided to first remove the object they considered the greatest immediate threat.

Surgeons successfully removed an intact black metallic sewing needle from the man’s pericardium. The needle was found to be corroded, suggesting that it had remained inside his body for an extended period.

Doctors did not find any obvious wound or scar on his chest that could explain how the needle had entered the area around his heart.

Following the operation, the man’s heart function temporarily deteriorated as a result of the existing injury and the strain of surgery.

He was discharged from the hospital nine days after the procedure.

At a nine-month follow-up appointment, the patient remained clinically stable, and his heart function had recovered.

Doctors decided not to immediately remove the other needles found throughout his body because doing so could create additional complications. Instead, they opted to monitor the remaining foreign objects closely.

Europe’s oldest man, Vitantonio Lovallo, has died at the age of 112.

It was shared that Lovallo passed away on September 15 in Avigliano, Italy.

Lovallo was born on March 28, 1914, and began working as a shepherd when he was just 16 years old.

As he grew older, he met his future wife in the village where she had been sent to recover from pleurisy. The couple got married in 1936 and went on to have four children: Lucia, born in 1938; Vincenzo, born in 1940; Maria, born in 1946; and another son, born in 1952.

Lovallo experienced the loss of one of his children when his son Vincenzo died after suffering from meningitis just months after being born. His wife also passed away from leukaemia in 2015 at the age of 98.

During World War II, Lovallo was sent to the front and was captured by German troops in Greece in 1943.

He was initially held on the Greek island of Rhodes before being transferred to Germany, where he was imprisoned at the Stalag VIII C camp until Russian troops liberated him in May 1945.

During his captivity, Lovallo was forced to perform hard labour, including work on the construction of a railway.

After returning home following the war, he worked as a muleteer and continued working on the land for several decades.

Following the death of Michele Cicora on March 31, 2024, Lovallo became Italy’s oldest living man. He also became the first male from the Basilicata region to reach the age of 110.

After Romania’s Ilie Ciocan died on May 27, 2026, Lovallo became Europe’s oldest living man.

He died on September 15, 2026, at the age of 112, bringing to an end the life of a man who had lived through two World Wars, witnessed generations of change and survived years of hardship during wartime.

Justice Obiora Egwuatu of the Federal High Court in Abuja has sentenced a 38-year-old South African woman, Will Jessica Ann, to 25 years in prison for importing 5.75 kilogrammes of heroin into Nigeria.

Ann was sentenced on Thursday, September 17, after she pleaded guilty to unlawfully importing the illicit drug into the country through the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja.

While delivering the judgment, Justice Egwuatu emphasized that Nigerian law does not take emotions into consideration when dealing with criminal offences.

According to the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Ann was arrested in July while travelling with her three-year-old son.

She was arrested during the inward clearance of passengers on Qatar Airways Flight QR1433, which arrived in Abuja from Doha.

The NDLEA had previously revealed that Ann was arraigned before the Federal High Court in Abuja in August, where she pleaded guilty to importing 5.75 kilogrammes of heroin into Nigeria on July 6.

During Thursday’s proceedings, Justice Egwuatu noted that Ann had admitted to committing the offence in her extrajudicial statement even before entering her guilty plea.

The judge explained that the law provides that a conviction follows a guilty plea and subsequently convicted Ann of the offence.

Following her conviction, the prosecution asked the court to consider the value of heroin when determining her sentence, stating that one kilogramme of the drug is worth about N18 million.

Ann, however, pleaded with the court for mercy and promised that she would never engage in such an act again.

The convict also told the court that she was remorseful and claimed that she did not know there were illicit drugs inside the bag.

After listening to both sides and considering her plea for leniency, Justice Egwuatu said, “Crime does not pay”, while emphasizing that the law is not influenced by “emotions”.

The judge sentenced Ann to 15 years’ imprisonment on Count 1 and 25 years’ imprisonment on Count 2.

However, the court ordered that both sentences should run concurrently.

Justice Egwuatu further ordered that if Ann does not appeal the judgment within the period allowed by law, the seized heroin should be destroyed.

A woman has shared her experience of how her former husband allegedly took her through unusual spiritual practices during their 13-year marriage.

In an interview with Tuko, the woman identified as Paulette Wanjiru revealed that she experienced difficult moments while married to her ex-husband, whom she said was deeply interested in seeking wealth through spiritual means.

According to Paulette, she endured physical abuse during the marriage, and over time, her husband began bringing different spiritual practitioners to their home.

She claimed that her ex-husband travelled to Tanzania and other places in search of wealth, while some rituals were carried out inside their home and others involved visits to cemeteries at night.

She also explained that during that period, her husband was involved in a court case after a friend gave him KSh800,000, and he was searching for ways to resolve the situation.

Paulette said her husband would often travel while claiming he was visiting friends, but she later discovered that he was involved in activities she did not understand.

She said: “So things started to boil over so he went to Kamba land and he did his own things there are things, there are things that even in my dreams I never thought would happen like something like that that would never happen so he’d go and then he would not tell me anything when he came back. The he would go to kisii and come back sometimes i would womder where he used to go when i go to his home, I would call him and he would pick up the phone we would talk and he would tell me he would come back the next day he would tell me that they were farming and he would come back once they are done so sometimes he would be available for 2 days.”

The woman further revealed that her ex-husband once brought a man into their home who introduced himself as a medicine doctor, but she later became suspicious after overhearing their conversations.

She said: “And then they would wake up at night and then light a fire with eggs, then sometimes, he (The witchdoctor) would cane him (Her ex husabnd) I dont know what that meant but what i do hear in their conversation was they were talking about the case and riches”

Paulette claimed that the man told her husband that they needed to be united in order for things to work, which led her husband to pressure her into taking part in the practices.

She said: “So that was when He (Her ex husband) went to town and he bought a red and black piece of cloth and he told me to go and tie it on myself then i asked him where can i wrap it is it the head or where??? He then told me why do i also behave like I’m stupid he told me to go and remove my clothes and wrap myself with that piece of cloth and I told hm I wasn’t removing my clothes. We went to the bedroom and he slapped me because i refused to do what they were saying.”

She also narrated how she was instructed to wear a particular dress and repeat words spoken by the spiritual practitioner during the process.

She said: “That time, the Witch doctor then told me that he understood me then he then told me to go and wear a dress that i would never wear again and I went to change int any dress I remember It was black and white …. I don’t even wear black and white clothes anymore …. so i went and changed and then told me to repeat whatever he was saying I told him I could not repeat what he was saying my Ex could speak Kikiyu so he would translate it for me and then he (Her ex) would threaten me…”

Paulette further claimed that she was given chicks as part of the ritual and was instructed to hit them on the ground, but they survived.

She added: “When i threw the chicks to the ground, they just walked away and he (Her ex husband) told me to hit them against the ground till they died i hot them but they still walked then he slapped me in front of the witch doctor and he warned him not to do that.”

She also alleged that the spiritual practitioner cut her face with a razor blade, collected money from her, and gave her a substance to rub on her hands while promising that she would become wealthy.

She said: “I went and looked for it i found 200 shillings and I gave it to him he then remove something from a oil and told me to rub it on my hands I rubbed it and he told me I would become rich and then i wasn’t believing in anything he was saying”

A Florida woman has been arrested after throwing a bucket of human feces at her neighbor, whom she accused of having a sexual relationship with her husband.

The woman, identified as 50-year-old Yirsi Esperanza Machado Rivera, was arrested and charged with burglary and battery following the incident, according to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.

During Machado Rivera’s bond court hearing, Judge Mindy Glazer described what happened.

“So, this is an interesting case. She thinks the neighbor is having relations with her husband, so she pushes her way into the victim’s house and then throws poop on the victim, a bucket of poop,” said Judge Mindy Glazer during the suspect’s bond court hearing.

According to the arrest report, Machado Rivera and the victim live on separate sides of a split trailer in a mobile home park near Miami Gardens.

At around 6:15 p.m. last Monday, Machado Rivera went to the victim’s side of the trailer and “began banging on the door.”

When the victim opened the door, Machado Rivera accused her of having a sexual relationship with her husband. Deputies said she then forced her way inside, shoved the woman and threw a bucket filled with human feces at her before leaving.

The arrest report stated that Machado Rivera had told a witness before the incident that “she pooped in a bucket to throw it in the victim’s face.”

However, during a later interview with deputies, Machado Rivera gave a different account. She said she was only trying to dispose of the bucket of “caca” because her toilet was broken.

She denied entering the victim’s home and also denied throwing the “caca” on her.

Machado Rivera remains facing burglary and battery charges in connection with the incident.
