 Tanzania’s Albinos Celebrate Death Sentences For Body Part Killers Author: Jonathan Clayton and Erick Kabendera Mwanza Source: The Times (UK) Title: TANZANIA’S ALBINOS CELEBRATE DEATH SENTENCES FOR BODY PART KILLERS Ngeme Luhagula has not had a peaceful night’s sleep since she saw her daughter hacked to death before her eyes two years ago. “I have endured the torture of living with that pain ever since. The images come and haunt me every night,” she told The Times at her village home on the shores of Lake Victoria. Yesterday she could not suppress a smile when informed that four men had been sentenced to hang for killing a 50-year-old man — an albino who had the same condition as her 18-year-old daughter, Vumilia. The men were found guilty of murdering Lyaku Willy and cutting off his head and legs. The verdicts bring to seven the number of people sentenced for killing albinos after the first such convictions in September. | |

bigcat (peoria, Illinois) - Email Me They need to do more against this. Frankly, I can't blame them for celebrating. That kind of trade is disgusting. Still, even if they do make an example, what does one want to bet that it would be the only one? especially if any government officials are involved in the trade, and considering how pervasive it is, there may be-somehow. |

Rosemary (Oneonta, New York) - Email Me that they're starting to hold people accountable for this travesty. The innocent should never live in fear. |
