Witch Doctors in Tanzania Accused of Killing Albinos for Magical Body Parts

As we have been following on this blog, witch doctors in Africa continue to cause great suffering and abuses, here and here and here and here. Now, there is a report from Tanzania that witch doctors have caused the slaughter of more than 50 albinos for their body parts.

In neighboring Burundi, at least 12 albinos have been killed for their organs and body parts.

Of course, such primitive beliefs are found in other countries, here and even in the United States, here.
