This is an incredible story. I still can't believe it's real. :-o
This baby, named Rahul, is suffering from Spontaneous Human Combustion. :-(

Look at the comment at the bottom of this article. It seems this guy Iyer Ram has an idea how the baby got this way.

Poor child,
I am always weary of what i see on the internet, if this is true i am surprised they have not recorded this happening if he is under constant care.
Whatever the case may be i will still send my healing energies to him, as i hope many here also do,
I believe we are all expanding as our "universe" expands, which is why there seems to be more cancers, as our cells are expanding on the microscopic levels, which i believe could be the reason for this childs SHC.
Perhaps this will be something we start to hear about more often.
A decompression chamber comes to mind, "what divers use", to rebalance the childs equilibrium.
I thought Munchouser's by Proxy, but considering the comment (super interesting) below, I guess it's a real possibility. I hope that the doctors at this hospital can deal with this. I wonder at which point can the baby get rid of this ash off his body. Maybe breastfeeding off someone else might help.
Yeah I thought Munchausen too, but there is alot about biochemistry we are not well versed in. I suppose it could happen a large number of novel ways naturally.
