President Dilma Rousseff's impeachment; Zika virus impact may be worse than first thought; BBC Identity season: focus on the global hair trade

A congressional committee in Brazil has recommended the impeachment of President Dilma Rousseff for allegedly manipulating government accounts.  

American health officials say the Zika virus will have a greater impact than previously thought.

At Hindu temples in India's southern states thousands of women a day have their heads shaved by temple barbers as a form of sacrifice. The hair is collected and thousands of tonnes are sold in India every year as part of the global hair industry.
