Unbelievable but yet true. A 13- year old boy from a small village called Pountsamp ,India, has been worshiped as a god because he was born with a tail that today exceeds 17 cm.

The city considers Arsint Ali Khan a religious symbol, as the locals believe him to be the reincarnation of the monkey Hanuman, the Hindu deity. while referring to him they call him Balatzi.
Arsint is confined to a wheelchair and he is seriously considering to remove the “tail” which has caused him severe mobility problems.
“This tail was given to me by God. People adore me because I pray to God for their desires and those become reality “,says 13 year old, adding that” I do not feel neither good nor bad about my tail”.

The “Young god “lives with his grandfather and two uncles after his father passed away when he was just four years old and his mother got remarried. As he says, no one is picking on him about the tail, but quite the opposite, they love him and treat him as a very great and important man.
