Malawi, scatta la caccia ai vampiri
Nove persone linciate dalla folla. È psicosi in una delle aree più povere del Paese dove la gente si è convinta che ci siano in giro dei succhiatori di sangue. Monito ai turisti: «Non andate lì, specialmente di notte»
Il racconto
Florence Kalunga, 27 anni, sostiene di essere stata attaccata la stessa notte: «Ho visto una luce, come un fuoco, poi ho sentito la porta aprirsi e un’ago si è infilato nel mio dito».
c’è anche chi accusa il presidente di aver fomentato le voci. «Se ci sono persone che vanno in giro per succhiare il sangue della gente io li affronterò» avrebbe detto un mese fa durante un comizio a Mulanje.

In the latest incident, a man with epilepsy was burned to death on suspicion of being a ‘blood-sucker’
Deadly mob attacks on people suspected to be “vampires” have led to 140 arrests in Malawi, police said on Friday.
The situation had spun out of control, the Inspector General of Police, Lexon Kachama, told The Associated Press. More arrests were expected.
Nine people have been killed in the attacks that began last month after rumors of “blood-suckers” spread. In the latest case, a man with epilepsy was burned to death in Blantyre, the southern African nation’s second-largest city, Mr. Kachama said. Another person there was stoned to death.
