Abstract
Background: Foreign body in rectum has been reported earlier but not in context of torture .
Case Presentation: Here a case of foreign body in rectum was used as a revenge and torture leading to imminent threat, pain and agony for the person who suffered.
Conclusion: Indian constitution or the constitution of Indian subcontinent do not address the torture by foreign body in rectum as a sexual assault and other forms of grievous injury. So the grieved victim is often torched in society with stigma to be looked upon him and without any compensation social rehabilitation.
