A 2-year-old boy with stomach pains was taken to the hospital in the city of Barreiras, Brazil on Sunday.
Stunned doctors discovered 50 sewing needles inside his body, including some in his arms and legs, 17 is his digestive system, and one that had perforated his lung. Doctors say the needles were inserted through the skin deliberately and not swallowed, otherwise they would all be in his digestive tract. They do not fear for the boy’s life.
His mother, Marma Souza Santos, has no idea how this happened. The stepfather is suspected of having used the boy in a black magic ritual.
With a family like this, who needs ennemies?

Social services took Zak away to a foster family in order to force the child to undertake the questionable diet. His parents were able to get their son back after a 4-month battle.
Social services admitted that the kid’s fussy eating continued during that period, and that maybe they were good parents after all.
