Bald People should Watch out for Witch Doctors, Mozambique Police Warn after Murders
"Police in Mozambique have warned bald people they could be targeted by superstitious attackers, who believe their lack of hair denotes wealth, after two men were brutally murdered and their body parts reportedly used in witchcraft.
Two bald men were murdered in the southern African country in May; one of the victims was found decapitated and with organs removed, according to national police spokesman Inacio Dina.
“Their motivations come from superstition and culture: The local community thinks bald individuals are rich,” Dina said, according to AFP.
Some people in Mozambique mistakenly believe that the heads of bald people contain gold, which could explain why one of the victims was decapitated, the BBC reported."
