Pakistan: Police hunt for 'healer' who hit nail into woman's head
A manhunt is under way in Pakistan for a faith healer who allegedly hammered a nail into a pregnant woman's head. The woman arrived at a hospital in Peshawar after trying to extract the 5cm nail with pliers. Initially, she told doctors that she had carried out the act herself, but later admitted a faith healer who had claimed he could guarantee she gave birth to a baby boy was responsible. The staff member at the Lady Reading Hospital added that the woman was mother to three daughters, and that her husband had threatened to leave her if she gave birth to another girl.
