An Iranian man seeking asylum in Australia botched his DIY penis enlargement procedure — and was granted entry to undergo pricey reconstructive surgery on taxpayer dime, according to local reports.
The man in his 30s, who wasn’t publicly named, tried to grow his member by injecting himself with palm oil and fell seriously ill, The Australian reported on Sunday.
He was transferred from an immigration detention center in Papua New Guinea to Australia last month for medical treatment that could cost up to $10,000, according to the outlet.
The transfer was made possible under Australia’s controversial 2019 Medevac laws, which give doctors a greater say as to which sick refugees can come into the county from offshore detention centers for medical treatment. Medical evacuations can be refused on national security grounds.
In this case, the man was reportedly involved in nearly 50 behavioral incidents while being detained in Papua New Guinea since 2013, including throwing boiling water on a security guard and punching another who took away his pornography.
Despite the man’s record, Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton couldn’t block the transfer because of his limited power under the Medevac laws, according to the outlet.
Supporters of the laws argued this transfer would have occurred anyway because of the seriousness of the patient’s injuries, and blasted the leaking of the man’s medical records as unethical.
