Two boys butchered and mutilated for body parts for witchdoctor's black magic

Two schoolboys murdered and mutilated in South Africa were believed to have been victims of muti killings where body parts are “stolen to order” for witchdoctors.

Three young pals were kidnapped in Soweto on Wednesday as they played in a park and one escaped but his best friends both met the most horrific of deaths.

Muti killings involve the removal of body parts while the victim is traditionally still alive which are then taken to "sangomas" to provide potions for their clients.
