They can't believe it's Buddha

Nepal's "Buddha boy" is under investigation by the authorities, who question his claim not to have eaten anything for six months and are examining his followers' finances. The government believes that Ram Bomjon, 15, may be breaking his fast to eat at night when his shrine is closed to visitors. Buddhism experts, the interior ministry and Nepal's leading scientific agency have all been called in to investigate the phenomenon, which has attracted thousands of pilgrims and excitement worldwide.
