Witchcraft and Beheadings

a little bit distrubing but very much part of the reality of living in a third world country. This murder happened near our neighborhood, and its not the first time this has happened. According to our local staff, construction owners pay witch doctors to bless their land and thier construction for a price. The blessing includes the sacrifice of an unblemished person, usually ending with the beheading and burial of the head on the construction site. One of our staff members knows a family whose child has been abducted and beheaded. Crazy but true!
