geovalin Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 A woman and her two daughters were accused of causing death and disease in the village of Kandal Tuol. After taking an oath, peace came to the residents. Cambodian culture is closely linked to the occult and spirits. Traditional beliefs are so strong that they sometimes hinder the journey of those who want to become Christians. Phnom Penh (AsiaNews/Agencies) – Accused of sorcery, a woman and her two daughters have claimed their innocence in a pagoda in Kampong Trach district, Kampot province. About 170 residents of Kandal Tuol, a village near Kampong Trach Khang Lech, were present at the ceremony (pictured), which took place two days ago and during which the women took a solemn oath. Some villagers had accused Koh Sok, 38, and her daughters of being sorcerers, said the local police chief, Seng Sokun Chatt. According to rumours, the three were responsible for the deaths and illnesses that affected local residents. read more http://www.asianews.it/news-en/Witch-hunt-in-Kampot:-Three-women-prove-their-innocence-in-pagoda-44507.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
