Maid held for alleged sorcery

Saudi authorities arrested an Indonesian housemaid after her employer told them she was planning to harm his family through sorcery, a newspaper reported on Tuesday.

The unnamed man told police he doubted his maid’s intentions after finding talismans and other magic items in her room.

“He filed charges that his maid is planning to use magic and sorcery to hurt his family…police arrested the maid after seizing those magic items,” 'Kabar' Arabic language daily said.
