Faith healer and ‘psychic surgeon’ accused of sexually abusing 300 worshippers
A SPIRITUAL healer accused of sexually abusing more than 300 worshiphers has handed himself in to cops in Brazil.
Joao Teixeira de Faria, known as Joao de Deus or "John of God" was arrested on Friday after alleged victims appeared on a Brazilian television show.
After the programme, on Globo television, some 335 people contacted authorities to say they'd been abused by Faria, 76.
Police then gave him until 3pm on Saturday to comply with an arrest warrant.
He finally surrendered around 4pm on Sunday on the outskirts of Abadiania, a city in Goias, a Civil Police officer told The Associated Press.
According to a video released by the newspaper Folha de Sao Paulo, de Faria said: "I surrender to divine justice and justice on Earth."
He was to spend the night at the State Delegation of Criminal Investigations in the state capital, it's reported.
Faria who claims to be a spiritual healer and “psychic surgeon,” attracts followers from throughout the world to a retreat in a small town called Abadiania. He once appeared on Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday talk show.
His fame has been boosted by supposedly miraculous surgeries he claims to have performed with his hands and without anaesthesia.
Many of his alleged victims say he molested them as children under the pretense of spiritual healing.
Representatives for the law office representing de Faria have said that they were not making statements on the case.
