Seven Prisoners Hospitalized After Hiding Phones in Rectums

Seven Prisoners Hospitalized After Hiding Phones in RearsCellular News reports that seven prisoners in Pakistan's Camp Jail have been hospitalized after hiding cell phones in their rectums.

Yes, the classic pastime of hiding things in one's anus to avoid confiscation extends to such uncomfortably bulky items as cell phones. In a sweep of the prison with metal detectors, the guards found 30 cell phones hidden in anuses around the prison. Unfortunately, seven phones (each in different prisoners, of course) were unable to be removed without medical attention.

To make matters worse, those seven men were publicly identified on the prison's bulletin board and placed in chakkis, small cells where prisoners can only sit or stand.

We're just wondering what happens if you accidentally leave the phone on vibrate while its in there? [From: Cellular News, Via: Textually]
