AN 18-year-old had a nightmarish experience when a python coiled around her neck while she was sleeping, Sinar Harian reported.
Nor Alia Aqilla Jamaluddin said she woke up in the wee hours of the morning when she felt something coiling around her neck.
"I woke up at about 3am but at that time nothing happened, so I went back to sleep.
"I quickly jumped out of bed and turned on the lights. To my horror, I saw the animal on my bed," she said.
Nor Alia then immediately woke up her aunt Nor Elida Khaidir, 27, and her two cousins.
She said they contacted the Fire and Rescue Department and waited for them to arrive outside the house.
Nor Alia said they arrived with four men at their home on the 14th floor of PPR Hiliran, Kuala Terengganu.
They caught the 3.3m-long python which weighed 26kg.
The teenager was shocked that the python could slither up to the 14th floor of their flat.
