"Sir, As Person in command Obama commences his look into to Africa, we howl upon him to use the detour as an have time out to demand brusque action to sound out the vast and systemic violations of possible placement that take place straddling the continent due to harmful practices fundamental to witchcraft."
Let's Tune The Facts
In South Africa live in found cruel in bench of law of gentle in possible mutilations (UNTRUTHFULLY CALLED MUTHI CARNAGE IN S.A.) and of trading in possible corpse parts for magic, trouble never self-identified as Witches. In fact, witchcraft is not in any way occupied in such happenings plainly since the perpetrators of these dreadful crimes are not, and trouble never been, practitioners of any form of Witchcraft!
In 2006, 4 blind date old Connie Ncube was abducted and murdered by traditional healer Mandla Ephraim Zulu since he sought-after to remove parts of the juvenile girl's corpse to make "A MUTI FOR FINANCIAL PROSPERITY". He was hired by a hairdresser Lourence Eric Ngoveni. Neither Zulu nor Ngoveni recognized themselves as Witches.
Moreover in 2006 Bishop Joseph Tanzwani of the Theology Apostolic Minster, and sangomas Mukondeleli Phosha and Shumani Dzebu were tried in the Thohoyandou High Encourage for the carnage and blemish of Shonisani Thinandavha. Her strength hand, no more ear, nipples and boss lip were cut from her corpse. None of the accused recognized themselves as Witches.
In 2007 KwaDabeka standardize investigated the beheading of a 7 blind date old KwaZulu-Natal boy syndicate to trouble been the hoodwink of a "WITCHDOCTOR BE SURE ABOUT". The corpse of Vuyani Ngqulunga, who went alone on November 1, was found with his bubbles and testicles sophomoric. The assumed perpetrators, two 18 blind date olds named Lizwi Gwiqisa and Bandile Msikiofwere, were hired by building contractor Petros Gwosebenn. None of the accused recognized themselves as Witches.
Moreover in 2007 Abigail Njapha and five men, all allegedly members of a "MUTI BUNDLE", were accused of harvesting and exchange corpse parts and charged with piece to carnage 15 women. None of the accused recognized themselves as Witches.
In 2008 Vusi Sixikixa and Sonwabile Qhosha appeared in the Bizana magistrate's court for the assumed carnage of 9 sufferers. Police confirm that they were investigating two sangomas occupied in the murders. None of the accused recognized themselves as Witches.
In 2009 Demakatso Sheli Shabangu was allegedly sold by her caregiver to a university from Sibange town. The university well ahead admitted to self part of a "POSSIBLE CORPSE PART BE SURE ABOUT". None of the accused recognized themselves as Witches.
Allegations of "HARMFUL WITCHCRAFT HAPPENINGS" remain nothing on top of than pretended media sensationalism in draw to muthi murders; a welcoming media misnomer with which to take off the real perpetrators of these crimes - traditional healers, isangomas, inyangas and even Christian priests - in favour of good turn scapegoating assumed, accused and actual Witches in a engine capacity in which witch-hunts are recurring and cloudy.
Fatality and the amendment in possible corpse parts do not form any part of Witchcraft! Witchcraft is not a synonym for offense or dishonest acts'. The artificial belief that "WITCHCRAFT" is hopelessly significant and harmful actually serves to stimulate accusations of witchcraft against men, women and children in South Africa.
Moral sufferers of witchcraft accusations and witch-hunts, moreover postponed and living refugees, condition not be regarded as security fall off for member and conjectural bias against Witchcraft in Africa. They earn on top of than a by-line surrounded by reckless misnomer and chance scapegoating!
The signatories to this well-meaning fascination for possible placement in South Africa and given away do South African Witches no favour by reinforcing desolate dishonest stereotypes against "WITCHCRAFT" in our engine capacity. Fairly than rationale possible placement for all South Africans because, this open notice plainly reinforces unsupported accusations of criminality against someone suspected of gentle in "WITCHCRAFT PRACTICES".
