Four More Albino Killers To Hang In Tanzania

by Earl Morningstarr

Four more men are due to be hanged in Tanzania after being found guilty of killing an albino man and cutting off his legs and head to sell to witchdoctors.

These are only the second set of convictions in Tanzania for the brutal attacks which have plagued the nations albino population. In the past two years over 50 albino Tanzanians have been sadistically murdered so their body parts including hair, genitals, bone and skin can be sold to voodoo witchdoctors for their fetish potions which are supposed to bring good luck and wealth.

In September Tanzania saw the first convictions for albino slaying, three men were all sentenced to death. Today’s sentencing shows that the Tanzanian Government are sticking to their promise that they will take a hard line with anyone who continues to slaughter albinos for their genitals.
