Twenty people have been arrested over last week’s lynching of five people in Kanunda village, Kisii District, over witchcraft allegations.

Kisii deputy police boss Manasseh Musyoka said four of the suspects will be charged with murder.

Police are still hunting for three more prime suspects who are on the run. “We are not going to let any suspect free.”

    Personally i have no problem with doing something about witches. In europe, they were roasted at the steak (all of them) which gave everybody peace of mind to go on with their lives. Although some parts of French speaking europe still have niggling witch problems.
