A press conference to showcase 'alien mummies' in Peru saw a bizarre twist when a 'pregnant' new specimen was displayed to the audience which later authorities tried to seize.

Ufologist Jaime Maussan, who hosted the event in Peru, presented a new 'alien' specimen named Montserratto the audience.

What made this 'mummified alien' different from the others presented by the ufologist seven months ago was his claim that this one was apparently pregnant at the time of her death.

70-year-old Maussan, who is well-known for his research into extraterrestrial phenomena, had earlier claimed the existence of two alleged mummified aliens, which he said were found in Palpa and Nazca in Peru in 2016. The claims were made at the Mexican Congress in September 2023.

As per the ufologist, there is a 'definitive proof' related to tridactyl mummies, which he said have three fingers and toes.

According to Maussan, the 'alien' was expecting a tridactyl foetus who had been named by him as Rafael.

However, the press conference took a dramatic turn after the Peruvian Ministry of Culture's officials interrupted the event and tried to seize Montserrat's mummified body.

The officials, who were accompanied by specialised police officers, suddenly took control of the microphone.

"Sorry for the interruption, we are taking an unexpected preventive action with the Ministry of Culture and the Specialised Cultural Heritage Police regarding the exhibition of the tridactyl mummies that you have reported on social networks," said the official.

However, the plans of the officials to confiscate Montserrat's body fell flat after they learned that the physical mummies were not brought to the event.

Maussan and colleagues had only prepared a video presentation of the tridactyl mummy and the officials were asked to watch the 15-minute video along with the audience.

The presentation included an analysis carried out by forensic odontologist and retired professor at the University of Colorado John McDowell.

John McDowell was accompanied by Dr James Caruso, a medical examiner based in Denver, Colorado and William Rodriguez, forensic anthropologist for Maryland State Medical Examiner.
