Cry Witch: Take My Land, Take My Life

At least one elderly person loses their life every week in the name of witchcraft along Kenya鈥檚 stunning Kilifi coast. Violence against alleged witches occur across swathes of Africa and beyond, but the estimated 70 deaths every year here are about much more than fear of the supernatural. Meeting victims, relatives and even perpetrators, Africa Eye investigates the real motives that fuel these brutal incidents, revealing that many victims are under threat from the very people who should be protecting them - their own families.
