These killings have been reported in about a dozen African countries, and Tanzania has the worst reports of Albino killings.
Tanzanian officials have alleged that witch doctors are promoting the sale of albino skin, bones, and hair as ingredients in spells to create prosperity.
Witch doctors have many strange beliefs, some of which include mutilating the body parts of albino people.
Many of the crimes that occur are usually against young albino children, most of which go unreported.
Unfortunately, the law doesn’t appear to be well-enforced in Tanzania, so crimes against albino people are not easily deterred.
