[QUOTE="Shamiso, post: 84209, member: 160"] Grave robbers just hit a new low, targeting the deceased for profit. The resting place of Mausamatha Zacharia in Dowa district got raided recently, and the perpetrators allegedly hacked off both arms from the corpse. This horrific violation proves that individuals with albinism face danger even after passing away because criminal gangs still hunt them for ritualistic purposes. The Malawi Human Rights Commission slammed the act as savage. Chairperson Chikondi Chijozi expressed outrage regarding the incident in Msakambewa, noting that attackers have switched tactics from targeting the living to looting cemeteries. Myths claiming these body parts hold magical power continue to drive this black market despite endless awareness drives. Anxiety levels spiked further because a different person with the condition vanished in Mulanje District around the same period. Officials suspect these events are linked together rather than happening randomly. The watchdog group urged law enforcement to accelerate their probe and catch every accomplice involved before more tragedy strikes. Community leaders and religious groups face pressure to speak up against these dangerous superstitions. The commission insists that silence essentially helps the abusers continue their trade. Protecting this marginalized group requires locking up the villains and educating the public to wipe out these backward beliefs permanently. [/QUOTE]
