Onlamai grabbed a broom and tried to fend off the reptile while shouting for her daughter who eventually managed to prise the python's powerful head off of her mother's hand.

The snake, which appeared to have gained access to the bathroom through the toilet, was later captured by wildlife officials after the two women raised the alarm.

It isn't clear where the reptile had come from or how it had ended up in the drainage system.
