Experts say superstitious beliefs are behind some of these attacks, but there are occasions when people - especially widows - are targeted for their land and property.
Like the Copts in Egypt, the Christians and Hindus in Pakistan and Bangladesh....only in those places they use trumped up charges of insulting Islam and the Quran instead of witchcraft Same old story....trying to steal something from the vulnerable and the weak.
