Kenya mob burns 15 women to death over witchcraft

A rampaging mob in western Kenya burnt 15 women accused of witchcraft to death, a local official and villagers said on Wednesday. ”This is unacceptable. People must not take the law into their own hands simply because they suspect someone,” said Mwangi Ngunyi, the head of Nyamaiya district. ”We will hunt the suspects down,” he added.
