  • EXCLUSIVE: Jhon Jairo Velasquez, known more famously as Popeye, is considered to be the world's most notorious assassin from his time as one of Pablo Escobar's most trusted lieutenants. Popeye was part of Escobar's Medellin Cartel until his surrender to the Colombian justice system in 1992. He was one of Pablo Escobar's inner circle and commanded half of the sicarios of the criminal organization 'The Extraditables'. Velasquez was released from prison in 2014 after serving over two decades for drug trafficking, terrorism and the 1989 murder of Colombian presidential candidate Luis Carlos Galán. He claims to have killed 300 people by his own hand and helped orchestrate the deaths of over 3,000. He was released for good behavior after serving 23 years of his 30-year sentence. Popeye has now emerged from hiding as Colombia puts its civil war and gangland legacy behind it and he now spends his time giving tours of Escobar's Medellín and the spots where he carried out slayings and is also a star on YouTube. 06 Aug 2017 Pictured: Jhon Jairo 'Popeye' Velasquez was mobbed by fans in Comuna 13, one of Medellín's most notorious slums and a former Escobar stronghold.

Popeye was part of Escobar's Medellin Cartel until his surrender to the Colombian justice system in 1992. He was one of Pablo Escobar's inner circle and commanded half of the sicarios of the criminal organization 'The Extraditables'. Velasquez was released from prison in 2014 after serving over two decades for drug trafficking, terrorism and the 1989 murder of Colombian presidential candidate Luis Carlos Galán. He claims to have killed 300 people by his own hand and helped orchestrate the deaths of over 3,000. He was released for good behavior after serving 23 years of his 30-year sentence. Popeye has now emerged from hiding as Colombia puts its civil war and gangland legacy behind it and he now spends his time giving tours of Escobar's Medellín and the spots where he carried out slayings and is also a star on YouTube. 06 Aug 2017 Pictured: Jhon Jairo 'Popeye' Velasquez was mobbed by fans in Comuna 13, one of Medellín's most notorious slums and a former Escobar stronghold.

  • EXCLUSIVE: Sella McCartney has infuriated her neighbours in The Hamptons by building a 5ft high sea wall that blocks her community’s decades-old private access to its beach. The fashion designer and husband Alasdhair (correct) Willis paid $1.7million for their three-bedroom ocean front home and adjoining land three years ago. But erosion is claimed to have destroyed 40 feet of frontage in just one year so they joined with an adjacent neighbour to build the wall to save both properties. However, the imposing 230ft wide sandbag structure also runs across a beach entrance road between the two homes that is for everyone living in the private avenue. It slopes up on the avenue side but has had a 5ft sheer drop on to the beach since October last year because a storm washed away the sand that made it resemble a dune. This has made it impossible for most of the residents, many of them elderly, to get down on to the beach. Some neighbours, many having lived for decades in the quiet lane in Amagansett, Long Island, New York, have now branded the designer, 47, arrogant and high-handed. Despite The Hamptons being a millionaires’ playground with high property prices, most residents in the private avenue have lived there for many years and hold down regular jobs or are retired. Stella and her family are believed to have spent part of last summer at the modest 1176 sq ft home. She has four children with Alasdhair, the creative director at boot brand Hunter. The couple advertised the home as a summer rental in 2017 for up to $30,000 a month. Stella’s dad Sir Paul, 77, has had a home in uber-fashionable Amagansett since the 1990s and pal Gwyneth Paltrow, 46, also has a house there. Stella and the neighbour’s wall went up in July last year. But her permit with East Hampton council expired in April. She is now applying for a time extension– but is willing to remove the sandbags across the 30ft wide access and run them round the side of her house, according to the latest pape

Despite The Hamptons being a millionaires’ playground with high property prices, most residents in the private avenue have lived there for many years and hold down regular jobs or are retired. Stella and her family are believed to have spent part of last summer at the modest 1176 sq ft home. She has four children with Alasdhair, the creative director at boot brand Hunter. The couple advertised the home as a summer rental in 2017 for up to $30,000 a month. Stella’s dad Sir Paul, 77, has had a home in uber-fashionable Amagansett since the 1990s and pal Gwyneth Paltrow, 46, also has a house there. Stella and the neighbour’s wall went up in July last year. But her permit with East Hampton council expired in April. She is now applying for a time extension– but is willing to remove the sandbags across the 30ft wide access and run them round the side of her house, according to the latest pape

  • EXCLUSIVE: Sella McCartney has infuriated her neighbours in The Hamptons by building a 5ft high sea wall that blocks her community’s decades-old private access to its beach. The fashion designer and husband Alasdhair (correct) Willis paid $1.7million for their three-bedroom ocean front home and adjoining land three years ago. But erosion is claimed to have destroyed 40 feet of frontage in just one year so they joined with an adjacent neighbour to build the wall to save both properties. However, the imposing 230ft wide sandbag structure also runs across a beach entrance road between the two homes that is for everyone living in the private avenue. It slopes up on the avenue side but has had a 5ft sheer drop on to the beach since October last year because a storm washed away the sand that made it resemble a dune.

  • Prague Zoo is celebrating the landmark birth of two Chacoan peccaries - an incredibly rare mammal once thought extinct. The Chacoan peccary is a mammal similar to a wild pig that is native to a small isolated area of South America. The animal was once believed to be extinct and its existence was first described in 1930 based on fossil samples that dated to the Pleistocene period. However, four decades later, American scientist Ralph Wetzel discovered a small population of Chacoan peccaries living in the Chaco region of Argentina. Even then, the Chacoan peccary was not very numerous, living only in dry thorny forests. Over time, due to deforestation and many other human-related factors, it has become an endangered species. Only one other zoo has regularly bred the unique species making these births a significant step forward in conservation efforts. Unfortunately, due to human overhunting, deforestation and diseases, their population of several thousand has continued to shrink over the last 50 years, prompting European zoos to launch a program for their survival. 24 May 2019 Pictured: Chacoan peccaries born at Prague Zoo.

  • EXCLUSIVE: Bed-ridden man walks again after 14 kg sac of swollen mass dangling from his thigh removed. NDIA,KOCHI, February 14, 2018 – Saidalavi, a 46-year-old man hailing from Kerala’s Thrissur district, was bedridden for the last two years because of a humungous swollen mass hanging from his left thigh in a sac like structure that weighed a staggering 14 kg. He got afflicted with lymphatic filariasis (elephantiasis) three decades ago and underwent a couple of surgeries over the years, but to no avail – the swelling kept increasing. The patient could move with great difficulty with the help of his aged mother and two brothers. His family members ran pillar to post, but no doctor was ready to take up his case due to the sheer size of the swelling which gave his leg a grotesque appearance. It was a race against time as his swollen legs had begun to get infected. Saidalavi’s life changed radically for the better a few days ago when a team of five surgeons and three anesthetists at Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences in Kochi removed the deformity in a surgery that lasted over five hours. Said Dr. Subramania Iyer, Head, Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences, Kochi: “It was a complex surgery. Several complications could rise because of the patient being overweight and his inability to walk. First, we treated him for four weeks with intensive antibiotic therapy to control infection in his legs. Then, the challenge was to institute Comprehensive Decongestive Therapy (CDT) which plays a major role in preparing a lymphedema patient for surgical treatment. In Saidalavi’s case, this went on for a month and involved Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) and a special method of bandaging to make the legs softer by pushing the accumulated fluid to other parts of the body. The size of his swollen legs and immobility made this very difficult and needed at least four therapists instead of the usual one.” Dr. Subramania Iyer added: “Finall

NDIA,KOCHI, February 14, 2018 – Saidalavi, a 46-year-old man hailing from Kerala’s Thrissur district, was bedridden for the last two years because of a humungous swollen mass hanging from his left thigh in a sac like structure that weighed a staggering 14 kg. He got afflicted with lymphatic filariasis (elephantiasis) three decades ago and underwent a couple of surgeries over the years, but to no avail – the swelling kept increasing. The patient could move with great difficulty with the help of his aged mother and two brothers. His family members ran pillar to post, but no doctor was ready to take up his case due to the sheer size of the swelling which gave his leg a grotesque appearance. It was a race against time as his swollen legs had begun to get infected. Saidalavi’s life changed radically for the better a few days ago when a team of five surgeons and three anesthetists at Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences in Kochi removed the deformity in a surgery that lasted over five hours. Said Dr. Subramania Iyer, Head, Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences, Kochi: “It was a complex surgery. Several complications could rise because of the patient being overweight and his inability to walk. First, we treated him for four weeks with intensive antibiotic therapy to control infection in his legs. Then, the challenge was to institute Comprehensive Decongestive Therapy (CDT) which plays a major role in preparing a lymphedema patient for surgical treatment. In Saidalavi’s case, this went on for a month and involved Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) and a special method of bandaging to make the legs softer by pushing the accumulated fluid to other parts of the body. The size of his swollen legs and immobility made this very difficult and needed at least four therapists instead of the usual one.” Dr. Subramania Iyer added: “Finall

  • EXCLUSIVE: By Sudipto Maity in India An Indian man complaining of stomach ache had over 100 iron nails removed from his intestine by doctors. The operation took place on Monday in the country's north west Rajasthan state. Reports said 42-year-old Bhola Shankar had reached the government hospital in Bundi town , complaining of excruciating pain. However, it was after conducting the initial tests that doctors were left baffled. X-ray of the patient showed a cluster of a rather unusual item in the man's stomach. A CT scan confirmed the suspicion. Operating on the patient, a team of surgeons, led by Dr Anil Saini, recovered and removed at least 116 iron nails. The team also shot a video of the operation, which showed nails being extracted from the intestine of the patient. Saini said, "This is the first such case I have come across," The doctor added it may be the first time something like this took place in Rajasthan. In 2017, doctors had removed at least 150 stationary pins from a patient's stomach in the same town. "What surprised us was the length of the nails. They measured 6.5 centimetres. To have such big iron nails removed from a patient's body is unprecedented," the senior doctor added. He also called it a bizarre case. Meanwhile, doctors have deemed the patient mentally imbalanced. "The patient is not able to narrate how the nails ended up in his intestine," Saini said, adding, "He is lucky the sharp objects did not puncture his organs, else, it could have proved fatal." The patient's younger brother said the former has been taking medicine for mental illness for the last two and half decades. However, he too couldn't explain how the nails ended up there. Doctors believe the man was in the habit of swallowing sharp objects as apart from the nails, doctors also extracted metal wires. Despite the lengthy operation, the patient was recovering well. 13 May 2019 Pictured: An x-ray of Bhola Shankar's stomach shows nails accumulated inside his body at a state-run hos

  • EXCLUSIVE: By Sanjay Pandey in India A 50-year-old Indian man has singlehandedly scraped though hills for a period of two years to make an 8km stretch of road to ensure that he and wife can meet their school-going children more often. Jalandhar Nayak, a small-time farmer from Kandhamal district of east Indian state of Odisha, constructed the first stretch of the road all by himself with just a pick axe and crowbar by working from dawn to dusk since 2016. So how did he stumbled up on the idea? “At the time of birth of our first child, my wife was home. When she went into labour pain, I tried to take her to the nearby health centre. But we couldn't reach there in time and she had to deliver the baby on the way. It was then the idea of building a road struck me first. I thought to myself, if having no roads in the village is causing us so much of problem to us, it would cause the problem to our children, too,” said Nayak, explaining how he stumbled upon the idea of contracting road." According to the Nayaks, the government has been giving assurance of building a road for decades in the area, but they never moved anything on the ground. Jalandhar’s father father who is 80 now, tells about the same hollow assurances that he got from the administration in his youth.   “When my children grew up and started going to school, it would take them three hours one way to go the school trekking though the mountainous terrain. Since they cannot commute to and from the school everyday, we had to get them enrolled in a residential school, a 15km away from home.   Nayak’s children spend six days in the school and return home on seventh day. But trekking though five hills is not a child play, the journey used to make them tired and exhausted. “This made me more determined to tear though the mighty mountains to pave way for my children. I didn't want my children to meet the same fate as mine. Hence, I decided to go ahead with the plan of road construction -- with or withou

  • EXCLUSIVE: By Sanjay Pandey in India A 50-year-old Indian man has singlehandedly scraped though hills for a period of two years to make an 8km stretch of road to ensure that he and wife can meet their school-going children more often.
