Witchdoctors Albino Society in Tanzania

Tanzania has banned witch doctors in the country to help stop the killings of albinos in the country which their body parts are prized for the witchcraft acts. The acts that the witch doctors use with the body parts are to help bring good fortune and wealth. However how they get these body parts is the horrid part, with an instance of a gang of people stealing a 4 year old albino girl to use for this witchcraft act. The ban itself comes one week after the UN put pressure on the government to stop the killings of the albino society. With one in fourteen hundred Tanzanians being albino many are targeted by these doctors.
