🇵🇬 Papua New Guinea: A War on Witches | 101 East

The naked woman is tied to a stake and burnt alive, tortured to death before an entire village.

Her alleged crime: Witchcraft.

This is not a scene from the 16th century. Such violence is taking place today in Papua New Guinea, where sorcery killings are spreading with a frequency and brutality that has drawn global condemnation.

In this disturbing investigation, 101 East exposes several unreported killings and the attacks on those who dare to help victims.

With police often unwilling to investigate attacks, witch-hunts are increasing, and survivors are forced to confront their own attackers.
