The two witches after they were caught
Two alleged witches have caused commotion in Budiriro area of Harare after they were found at a house in the early hours of the morning completely n*ked. They were also found with witchcraft tools of trade including traditional herbs, calabashes, live owls and other paraphernalia held in winnowing baskets.
According to reports, the Police were called to the scene and took away the two women to Budiriro Police Station before proceeding with them to Southerton Police Station. They had wrapped them in police blankets to cover their na.kedness. Several hundred Budiriro residents mobbed the “witches” and it took police a hard time to disperse them.
An eyewitness who refused to be identified said: “It was around 6am when we heard people shouting ‘witches, witches’ from a house near here. We rushed there and found the two women sitting outside the house in complete nudity. On being asked where they had come from, one of them said they had come from Mutorashanga, but would not say how they had ended up here or the purpose of their visit.”
Scores of people were milling around the police station, trying to catch a glimpse of the “witches”. Police spokesperson for Harare Province Inspector Tedius Chibanda, who was at the scene, declined to comment on the matter.
The police spokesperson said the suspected witches had been arrested and were facing charges of contravening Section 98 of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act for engaging in practices commonly associated with witchcraft. Many people have noted that the dramatic incident happened a long time ago.
