Russian Surgeon Stole Heroin from Patient's Stomach

A surgeon who operated on a drug mule in an East Siberian town stole heroin from his stomach and was detained while high, regional police said Tuesday. Police found a bag containing 5 grams of heroin in the surgeon’s clothes after he had performed surgery on a drug mule in the Bogotol town hospital in Russia’s Krasnoyarsk region, regional police said in a statement. A video posted on the police website shows the surgeon – a burly man dressed in a dark blue training suit – being locked in a small detention cell. A woman can be heard asking “what are you being detained for?” and the surgeon says he will not comment without his lawyer. If convicted, he faces up to 15 years in jail, the police statement said.
