Bandar Seri Begawan - It was indeed a live enactment of the hit movie snakes on a plane when a real life snake allegedly smuggled by a Bruneian couple on budget carrierAirAsia caused a frenzy over one-hundred flight passengers boarding a tight from Kuala Lumpur to Miri on Sunday morning, the Malaysian daily newspaper Berita Harian reported.

The married couple however denied smuggling the pet snake which was spotted by a horrified passenger on the floor of the aircraft but admitted to illegally importing forty-six baby rats that they stored in a box, hidden inside a backpack they carried into the plane.

…

“The couple admitted to bringing baby rats by concealing them inside a box which they stored in a bag they carried into the plane. The baby rats were smuggled to feed the pet snake,” the official was quoted as saying in Berita Harian.

Which leads to the obvious question, what were they planning on feeding the snake to?
