Sudanese man beheaded in Saudi Arabia car park for being a 'sorcerer' | Mail Online: "And while the crime of 'sorcery' is undefined in Saudi Arabian law, it has been used to punish people for the legitimate exercise of their human rights.
Abdul Hamid is understood to have been arrested in 2005 after he was entrapped by a man working for the Mutawa'een (religious police).
He was asked to concoct a spell that would cause the officer's father to leave his second wife.
According to the officer's account Abdul Hamid agreed to carry out the curse in exchange for 6,000 Saudi Arabian riyals (approximately £1,000).
He was beaten after his arrest and thought to have been forced to admit to acts of sorcery"
