Albino attack survivor: 'I am too scared to sleep'


Albino attack survivor: 'I am too scared to sleep'

An albino hunted for her body parts tells she lives in fear after surviving a kidnap attempt in Malawi.

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-39026482

[These poor people in Africa are victims of superstition and ignorance. Often kidnapped, killed and dismembered for body parts. They live miserable and frightful lives and few westerners seem to even know about it. This is an African problem and they have to solve it. Is there really anything that we can do?]

One can only hope there is some sense and sensibility to evolve as to the superstitions in different nations.

Sure, we can rescue them and provide them with sanctuary. It's just a matter of having our government being willing to do so.
