The investigation was a partnership with BBC’s ‘Africa Eye’ in which they looked into ritual killings in Malawi.

Many people are murdered and body parts cut off for rituals in the southern African country.

Anas posed as a businessman who needed charms to make his business thrive. Therefore, he met one ritualist who told him everything he needed to know.

The man even recommended an associate to Anas whould would carry out the killing then he said he would use the parts cut off, particularly the head and genitals, for his rituals to help Anas’ business.

It was during a very late night meeting to get more details from the ritualist and the killer when they were nearly lynched and Anas was forced to abandon his investigation.
