An alleged gangster has posted a video
online of him shaving his girlfriend’s
hair off as punishment for cheating on
him.


The woman was forced to squat while a
man take a set of clippers to her hair in
Brazil.
Other people can be heard in the
background laughing and jeering while the
terrified woman appears to accept her fate.
After removing all her head hair, the man is
then ordered to shave off both her
eyebrows.
Finally, the man then snatches up a
handful of her clipped, thick locks and
mockingly plants it on her bald head like a
wig.
Another gang member – who had been
issuing the orders – then hands her a
mobile phone and orders her to make a
call, believed to be to the man she cheated
with.
Local experts say this type of warning
punishment is common in drugs cartels
across Brazil to publicly shame to anyone
who breaks the rules.
