TWO suspected witches have been arrested after they were found n3ked outside a house in Zimbabwe's suburb early Tuesday.
The two women, both from Gokwe in the reserve area, were charged with “engaging in practices commonly associated with witchcraft” before local magistrates, Inspector Tim Chibanda of Harare police said.
Inspector Chibanda said the women, who have not been named, were found bare with an assortment of witchcraft-associated paraphernalia including a live owl, two winnowing baskets which are used for flying in witchcraft mythology, a baboon skeleton and an orange substance in a 550ml Coca-Cola bottle.
The bizarre sight confronted children waking up to go to school shortly after 5AM at a house on Gata Street in Budiriro 2.
Witnesses said the owner of the house was a self-styled prophet who had had contact with the witches a day earlier.
Robert Mwade, a tenant, told our sources: “We found them in the morning, they were sitting on top of their winnowing baskets. It looks like they crash landed here.
“The prophets asked them what their business was and they said they came from Mutorashanga and were flying over Budiriro when they crashed.”
