SORCERY ACCUSATIONS RELATED VIOLENCE IN PAPUA NEW GUINEA

Sorcery accusation related violence (SARV) in PNG is a deeply rooted phenomenon occurring in almost every setting; from remote hamlets to big cities like Port Moresby.

More money is being pumped by relevant stakeholders to eradicate this human catastrophe with the PNG's 10th Parliament making laws to deter perpetrators.

The penalty provision in the country's Criminal Code Act has been hiked to 10 years for anyone that accusses another person of sorcery or witchcraft and for anyone that proclaims to practicing witchcraft and or applying physical force of any sort to the accussed people.

SORCERY RELATED VIOLENCE IN PAPUA NEW GUINEA

Sorcery related violence in PNG is endemic - there is no end in sight.

It is a cultural belief that contemporaries fail to blend westernization to come off it.

Vulnerable people (old and the weak in society) are accused of killing others thus violence is adopted as a revenge.

Violence involves torturous killings and painful inflictions.

It also occassions irreparable damages to families of victims.

The PNG government, NGOs, churches, and international partners are fighting an uphill battle to curb socery related violence. Andrew Dupre 2023 (talk) 10:28, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
