Image description

With his tongue skewered, a Singaporean Tamil turns to watch the proceedings as a friend holds a harness attached with hooks through his skin during the annual Thaipusam festival January 17. Chiefly celebrated by Tamils from south India, this Hindu festival honours Lord Subramanian with devotees piercing various parts of their bodies and carrying heavy steel arches called "kavadi" in a procession through the city
