NARRATOR: Finally, the [inaudible] leader agrees to talk. [non-english speech]. He is speaking on behalf of everyone. He says, "Yeah, I'm a pastor. I'm a leader. I'm a Christian. I'm a father. But this belief is part of my life. And I can't just take it out. It's part of me. How can I extract it?" [non-english speech].

INTERPRETER: People admit themselves and say, "We have [non-english]." But it does have to do-- But people confess.

INTERPRETER: "Yeah, they admit to having it. Huh. It escapes me why they would do that. So people do confess. And sometimes they'll say, 'It wasn't me. It was the one from over there or the one from over there.' And they'll tell us, and we have no idea, so we just believe it. It's a good [non-english] and bad [non-english]. [non-english speech]. One is good thinking. [non-english speech]. And the other one is dangerous. Oh, [non-english]. This is [inaudible], one of our accused. Hello."

INTERPRETER: "Her mother was murdered. She's accused. Her son is accused. So they're all within the same family. So he believes that she has this [non-english] spirit inside her." [non-english speech].

"So he said, how would we know if she has [non-english]? It's a spirit. You can't see a spirit. We've been told by people who would know because they're also [non-english]. [inaudible] has it. So we believe it." [non-english speech].

INTERPRETER: "I was going to kill her, but then she said she didn't have it. It wasn't her. But then the others turned around and said, 'No, it was her,' so." [non-english speech].

"So I asked him, in your own life, your wife was accused of being a [non-english] and murdered. Now, do you think--"

  • "She was murdered." His wife was murdered.

INTERPRETER: "So do you think that she was correctly accused?" [non-english speech].

"There's is no way that my wife was [non-english]. I don't accept that. Her family, my family, and I myself, and I believe she was not [non-english]. And it was a completely falsified accusation." [non-english speech].

INTERPRETER: "But they killed her anyway. But when there's a bad [non-english], do people believe it is OK to then kill them? You have to kill them? It's OK to kill them? Is it the right thing to do? We must kill them then. We must kill them then."

NARRATOR: This man, this priest, whose own wife was falsely accused, still believes that witches must be punished. In so many ways, this tells me how deep and intractable the belief in [non-english] is here.
