Ritualists now target bald men, believe their heads contain gold – Police

Police in Mozambique have warned bald men that they could be at risk of attack after a spate of killings thought to be motivated by a local belief that their hairless heads contain gold.

It was gathered two people have been arrested in the central province of Zambezia over the deaths of three men, one of whom was decapitated and had his organs removed.

The suspects told detectives that they were working on commission from clients in Malawi and Tanzania, who wanted to get rich with the help of witchcraft, according to The Times report.
