This MLA has Ghosts, Python as pets

Here is a politician "Anant Singh" who is JD(U) MLA from Mokama in Bihar State of India & this man is having a "weird hobby" of keeping a python as his pet. He too claims to having ghosts also as his pets.

On Thursday, he proudly displayed his new "pet" -- a python -- before a section of the electronic media. Coiled up in a glass case, the reptile was on some TV channels with the MLA once lifting it to put around his neck.

Tall, slim and heavily-moustached, Anant is always surrounded by toughies. And he talks tough. "I have also got some 'bhoots' (ghosts) as my pets. I have them... I have them... I can show you but do you have enough courage to see my ghosts?" he dared the media men, defiantly.

He is the same Anant Singh who was facing over two dozen criminal cases & was released from Buxar jail earlier. He had won in elections earlier from Mokama seat defeating a kin of LJP MP Suraj Bhan Singh.

Even as the forest officials were talking to the MLA, some media men were watching the python drinking milk from a bowl in the glass case in one of the rooms in the MLA's flat.
