8 year old girl tortured in Britain over witchcraft allegations Suffering from ads?

'Girl tortured over witchcraft claims'
By This is London
9 May 2005

An eight-year-old girl was tortured and was about to be killed after being accused of being a witch, the Old Bailey heard today.

The child had been placed in a laundry bag and was about to be thrown into a river to drown when one of her tormentors managed to stop the others, said Patricia May, prosecuting.

Her months of ill-treatment had started when another child told his mother that the girl had been using witchcraft against the family.

Child cruelty charges against three women and a man allege that that chilli peppers were rubbed into the girl's eyes, she was beaten with a belt, slapped, cut with a knife and starved.

The girl's 39-year-old aunt from north London, who cannot be named for legal reasons, denies conspiracy to murder and charges of child cruelty.

Sita Kisanga, 35, of Hackney, east London, denies conspiracy to murder and child cruelty charges.

Her brother, Sebastian Pinto, 33, and his girlfriend Kiwonde Kiese, 21, both of Stoke Newington, north London, deny aiding and abetting child cruelty between August 2002 and November 2003.

This is sick.

Witchcraft is no longer a crime in Britain, and these people should be beaten with sticks and then stuffed with dynomite.

Sick *****.

These abusive cretins should be locked up in order for experiments to be conducted on them.

While I detest religion - No-one should be harmed over it...Especially an innocent child!

I just saw a story from this weekend about 6 accused witches being beaten and nearly lynched in Mexico. The state police had to fight force their way into the town, against both the populace and local authorities to rescue them.

Were there prominent Americans who were part of this vicious mob? Such as Jerry Falwell or Fred Phelps?

Judging by the names it's a West African family. There's been a rise in witchcraft and voodoo related crimes the last few years (I seem to remember the torso of a boy found in the Thames a few years back, with voodoo symbols carved into it). Probably happens in New York or other cities with a fairly large fresh immigrant population as well.
