Akbar Salubiro was a 25-year-old man who went missing on March 25, 2017, after setting off for harvest in a remote village on the western part of the island Sulawesi, Indonesia. Akbar's remains were found two days later inside the body of a reticulated python.

Disappearance and discovery of body

The morning after Salubiro was reported missing, a search party was sent out, and his family became worried and called the police. Later that day, the snake that had eaten Salubiro slithered into Salubiro's backyard near an oil palm plantation. People saw that it had difficulty moving due to its large belly, an official stated. Residents then cut open the belly of the snake and found Salubiro dead inside. People said they heard cries from the palm grove the night before Salubiro was found eaten by the snake.

Aftermath

The death of Akbar Salubiro was the first fully confirmed case of a reticulated python killing and consuming an adult human, as the process of retrieving the body from the python's stomach was documented by pictures and videos taken by witnesses.
