For Sale: Human Head
South African police have arrested a 23-year-old murderer and
the human head he was trying to sell for use in traditional
medicine. Police said the head belonged to a 52-year-old man
whose headless corpse was found Monday in Krugersdorp. The head
had been hacked off with a knife. Police have in the past
uncovered several so-called muti murders of people killed for
body parts that some traditional healers believe are essential
ingredients for certain kinds of medicine.
