Kuala Lumpur: In the past three years, about 80% of distress calls involving rings have been sent to the city's fire and rescue departments to remove rings stuck in the private part of men.
Samsol Maarif Saibani, chief operating officer of the city's Fire and Rescue Department, said that after the male genitals were stuck on the metal ring, almost 80% of the removal ring issued to the Department
He said that the department received a total of 8 cases of removal of the card ring in 2016, compared with 22 in 2015 and 10 in 2014. In addition, most of the calls involving private parts and rings came from hospitals.
"Normally in this case, we will be called to help because the medical facility does not have the tools needed to remove the ring from a private part," he said on Sunday . ".
He added that rings glued to private parts are also more difficult to remove compared to jewelry, as these rings are usually made of dense metal, unlike jewelry.
Samsol also urged people to be more careful about the penis rings, especially those made of metal.
He said so on New Year's Eve, after his penis was stuck in a metal ring, the department was called to help a man in his 30 s.
