A man from Ibotirama has confessed to inserting 42 needles into his 2-year-old stepson in a primitive religious ritual. Roberto Carlos Magalhaes says he was commanded to do it by a woman in a trance. Three have been arrested. Meanwhile the boy has been transported to a major Bahia hospital because two of the needles are close to his heart and deemed dangerous to remove.
