Fasting: How to do it right

A Mozambican pastor, Francisco Barajah, has reportedly died after fasting for 40 days, in an attempt to copy what Jesus Christ is said to have done in the Bible.

His death was confirmed on Wednesday.

Barajah was the founder of the Santa Trindade Evangelical Church in the central province of Manica.

He died while being treated at hospital in Beira where he was evacuated in critical condition.
