According to the brazilian daily newspapers, the gay soap opera author Daniel Sena got battered last Sunday. The 24 old man, which is screenwriter for the famous brazil soap opera “Apenas Heróis” ( just heroes) left his house in his home town Salvador on Sunday evening when it happens.
The three men carried him into a small street and forced him to drink fuel and eat dirt from the ground. After they were ready with this, they tried to penetrate him with a metal rod. They even stopped because a lorry driver saw them and tried to stop them. Daniel Sena is sure he was attacked becaus of his job. The soap opera he is screenwriter for is a soap opera about gays and was more than once in the brazilian news.
