Man Kills his 17 years old brother and his Fiancée over witchcraft allegation.


Man Kills his 17 years old brother and his Fiancée over witchcraft allegation.

According to a news report by Independent, A tragic incident unfolded in Houston as 23-year-old Wilman Sandoval allegedly attacked his 17-year-old brother and the brother's 26-year-old fiancée, suspecting them of practicing witchcraft against him. Armed with a pistol, Sandoval took the lives of both victims in their family home on a Sunday afternoon.


The victims, who suffered multiple gunshot wounds, were swiftly taken to the hospital. The man is now in "serious condition," and the woman is in "very critical condition." Thankfully, both are currently in "fair condition" and expected to survive, as reported by FOX26.


Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez revealed that the brother attempted to protect his fiancée from the "senseless" violence and ended up getting shot.


The alleged motive behind the attack was Sandoval's belief that family members were engaging in witchcraft against him, causing deep distress.


Despite the decline in the active persecution of supposed witches in the US, Sandoval's case serves as a stark reminder that superstitious beliefs persist, leading to tragic consequences in our society.


At Khadi4theaged, we remain vigilant to such cases not only in Africa but globally. We earnestly hope for the eradication of these superstitious beliefs, bringing an end to the societal chaos, including violence and abuse, that stems from them.
