Extreme belief?

S. Korean man found crucified, wearing crown of thorns: Police are investigating whether it was murder or suicide
A man wearing only underwear, with a wound on the side of his torso and nylon strings tied around his neck, arms and stomach, was found crucified Sunday in Mungyong, about 115 miles southeast of Seoul, said Chung Ji-chun, chief of the violent crime section at Gyeongbuk Provincial Police Agency.

Two smaller crosses were erected on each side of the cross he was nailed to, Chung said.

Police also found nails, a hammer, an electric drill, pieces of wood and instructions on how to build crosses inside a tent near the scene, Chung said.
The person was reported to be known for extreme religious beliefs and a mirror was found in position so the person could see himself on the cross. It is still being investigated to see if it was murder, suicide, or if someone helped with the crucifixion.
