  The charge-hiding effect by a horned particle, which was studied for the case
where gravity/gauge-field system is self-consistently interacting with a
charged lightlike brane (LLB) as a matter source, is now studied for the case
of a time like brane. From the demand that no surfaces of infinite coordinate
time redshift (horizons) appear in the problem we are lead now to a completly
explorable horned particle space for traveller that goes through the horned
particle (as was the case for the LLB) but now also in addition to this, the
horned region is fully visible to a static external observer. This requires
negative surface energy density for the shell sitting at the throat. We study a
gauge field subsystem which is of a special non-linear form containing a
square-root of the Maxwell term and which previously has been shown to produce
a QCD-like confining gauge field dynamics in flat space-time. The condition of
finite energy of the system or asymptotic flatness on one side of the horned
particle implies that the charged object sitting at the throat expels all the
flux it produces into the other side of the horned particle, which turns out to
be of a "tube-like" nature. An outside observer in the asymptotically flat
universe detects, therefore, apparently neutral object. The hiding of the
electric flux behind the tube-like region of a horned particle is the only
possible way that a truly charged particle can still be of finite energy, in a
theory that in flat space describes confinement. This points to the physical
relevance of such solutions, even though there is the need of negative energy
density at the throat of the horned particle, which can be of quantum
mechanical origin.
