Maid held for casting "spell" on family
2011-10-12
[Emirates 24/7] Soddy Arabia's inquisitors religious police placed in long-term storage an Indonesian housemaid for casting a magic spell on a local family and "turning its life upside down," a newspaper in the Gulf Kingdom reported on Tuesday.
I think I seen this show! It's not really her, it's her mother who does all that stuff and she gets blamed for it...
No, no, no. It's her "evil twin"...
The employer of the maid in the southern mountainous town of Bisha told members of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice that he had noticed a drastic change in the behavior of his family members and that he suspected the maid was behind this.
"Every time she'd walk into the room my son would take one look at her chest and holler 'Mama Mia!' He never knew how to speak Italian before!"
"He said the behavior of all his family members changed completely and their life was turned upside down...he said he suspected the maid could have cast a magic spell on them," Sabq Arabic language daily said.

"After arresting and investigating the maid, she confessed to having done magic work against the family and led them to the magic items that were hidden under the steps outside the front door...Commission experts took the magic items to their office and managed to dismantle and stop the spell."
And it's a damned good thing they were able to do so, too. Those things go off in a crowded neighborhood, well ... let's just say things could have been bad, real bad.
