Witchcraft trial.

Posted on February 15, 2008

Fawza Falih has been accused of being a witch. A court in Saudi Arabia heard that Fawza made 2 men impotent. She supposedly did that by supernatural occurrences. She was blamed for casting a spell to invoke a divorced man’s ex-wife to return to him.

Human Rights, an international charity, accused the Saudi Arabia King Abdullah’s police of forcing a confession from the woman. This group claimed that the victim was not given the chance to prove her innocence.

The court depended on witnesses, who gave statements. They said she had bewitched them to convict her in April, 2006. Fawza retracted her confession, having said that it was given under duress and she did not understand the nature of the document she was forced to fingerprint as her signature. Only the Saudi Arabian King can help her now.
