    Printable version Indonesian man loses his teeth in a cigarette explosion


    The cigarette makers said they had never heard of such a case before

    An Indonesian man has been given compensation after a cigarette he was smoking exploded, taking out six teeth.
    Andi Susanto, 31, told Indonesian media the cigarette had blown up in his mouth while he was riding a motorcycle.
    He accepted a payment of 5m rupiah ($535; £335) and all his medical costs from PT Nojorono Tobacco, makers of the brand of cigarette he was smoking.
    Police are investigating what caused the blast, but Mr Susanto said he would try to give up smoking now anyway.
    He told the Jakarta Post newspaper he had been smoking since he was a schoolboy and had never had any problems.
