A ST KILDA man purporting to be a ''North American Indian shaman healer'' with the power to cure cancer has failed in a Supreme Court bid to stop the Health Services Commissioner naming him in a report to State Parliament.

Commissioner Beth Wilson warned Shamir Narra Avorham Djuwani Kiefa Israel Marlon Wati Dakota Jessie Malakhi-Zion-Angel-Shalom - who was born Peter Marlon de Angelis - of her intention to name him because he had falsely represented himself as a shaman healer and had breached professional boundaries by initiating sexual relationships with female clients.

Ms Wilson said he had not complied with her requests to cease acting as a healer and that naming him was necessary to warn vulnerable members of the public about him.

In March last year Mr Shalom, 52, ''pressed on chakra points to remove toxins'' from one of his clients, ''Mr C'' and in June did a ''tantric dance'' ending with his belly touching the belly of ''Ms E'' - telling both of them he could cure cancer.
