Ramon Gustavo Castillo Gaete, 36, is the alleged leader of a 12-member sect that is accused of burning a baby alive.

SANTIAGO, Chile -- Chilean police on Thursday arrested four people accused of burning a baby alive in a ritual because the leader of the sect believed that the end of the world was near and that the child was the Antichrist.
The 3-day-old baby was taken to a hill in the town of Colliguay near the Chilean port of Valparaiso on Nov. 21 and was thrown into a bonfire. The baby's mother, 25-year-old Natalia Guerra, had allegedly approved the sacrifice and was among those arrested.
"The baby was naked. They strapped tape around her mouth to keep her from screaming. Then they placed her on a board. After calling on the spirits they threw her on the bonfire alive," said Miguel Ampuero, of the Police investigative Unit, Chile's equivalent of the FBI.

Investigators search for evidence in a house that was used to perform rites by a sect in Colliguay, Chile.

Authorities said the 12-member sect was formed in 2005 and was led by Ramon Gustavo Castillo Gaete, 36, who remains at large.
"Everyone in this sect was a professional," Ampuero said. "We have someone who was a veterinarian and who worked as a flight attendant, we have a filmmaker, a draftsman. Everyone has a university degree. "
Police said Castillo Gaete, the ringleader, was last seen traveling to Peru to buy ayahuasca, a hallucinogenic brew plant that he used to control the members of the rite.
 
It's beyond me how to comment on that.
 
well, I'll comment- i wish I could tear these monsters apart slowly with my bare hands :evil: but that would be too kind
 
I simply can't understand how the mother would have gone along with that willingly. What are they, Moloch-worshippers?

Absolutely horrific.

Cults brainwash people.
 
And, of course, it's well known that pregnant/postpartum women aren't always able to be completely rational, at the best of times :(
 
"You know, Natalia, when the baby comes along, you are going to have to make sacrifices!" :nooo:
 
:cry: Religion strikes once again :cry:
 
Chilean 'cult leader' Ramon Castillo found dead in Peru

Ramon Castillo Gaete had been on the run since February

Police in Peru say they have found the body of the alleged leader of a Chilean cult accused of burning a newborn baby alive last November.

Ramon Castillo Gaete, 35, had been on the run for more than two months. Police believe he killed himself.

His body was found in a house in the Peruvian city of Cusco and identified from fingerprints.

The baby girl was thrown into a bonfire because the sect reportedly considered her an antichrist.

The baby's mother, Natalia Guerra, and three other suspects were arrested in Chile last week.

'Apocalypse'
Mr Castillo was thought to be the baby's father. He is accused of persuading Ms Guerra to give up the baby for sacrifice in the town of Colliguay, in Chile's Valparaiso region.

He believed he was a god and expected the world to end on 21 December 2012, Chilean authorities said.

The death of the three-day-old baby last November shocked Chile, a predominantly Roman Catholic country.

Peruvian police said Castillo's body was found with a rope around his neck hanging from a beam inside a house on the outskirts of Cusco.

"There is no evidence of anyone else taking part in his death," Cusco police chief Juvenal Zereceda told Chile's La Tercera Newspaper.

"All the preliminary evidence indicates this was a case of suicide," Mr Zereceda added.
