A Sri Lankan residing in Maldives offered more than US$ 26,000 to buy an albino turtle to use it in a black magic ritual on a Maldivian politician, popular Sri Lankan singer Amal Perera has told Sri Lankan Police.
The rare albino turtle had disappeared from the Kosgoda Sea Turtle Conservation Sanctuary on December 18. According to Sri Lankan media, the police questioned Perera for three hours after the sanctuary’s owner alleged Perera’s involvement in the turtle’s disappearance.
‘Ceylon Today‘ quotes Perera as saying: “I went to the Kosgoda Sea Turtle Conservation Sanctuary in July with a person called ‘Supun’ who had come to the country representing a Maldivian national.”
Amal denied any involvement in the turtle’s disappearance and said there was no exchange of money during the July visit.
Police are now looking for Supun who is believed to be in Sri Lanka at present. Sri Lankan Wildlife Resources Conservation Minister Vijith Vijithamuni Soyza told media last week that he believed the turtle could have been smuggled into the Maldives.
The belief and use of traditional “Fanditha” magic for various purposes – ranging from courting and divorce to sports and politics – is fairly common in the Maldivian culture. A surge in suspected use of Black magic for political reasons was witnessed following the controversial power transfer in February 2011 and in the run up to presidential elections.
Maldives Police Service have investigated a number of cases including the case of a Black magic doll at a polling station and a cursed coconut in September 2013.

According to the illustrious Hanbali madhab of fiqh, besides womenfolk, Albino turtles are among the most mischevous and deceitful of Allah's creation. They can be used to cast highly potent and depraved spells. I hope the authorities take this matter very seriously.
..exactly the type of a story that should appear on Minivannews...
Are people that foolish to believe in Black magic? It's you who can influence yourself, No black magic, god or devil is there to do that. Wake up you fools, don't put the blame on black magic, devil or god for your own faults. Gods and devils have there own life's and problems to look after please leave them alone.

According to recent research, the father’s sperm cell carries the information of bad experience of past to his offspring. No wonder The Mlu people must have had a hell of demonic experience in their eerie past. It will take a bloody good time to eradicate such genes from their gene pool. Need hell of cross transnational gametes. Demonic experience comes from malnutrition and those who are feeble. Malu people have been eating only fish and are lacking lot of mineral and vitamins in their diet to get a good brain, free from such demonic and godly experiences. Just change your eating habits, and mating habit, and then only you can enjoy your life free from these superstition, myths and religious mumbo jumbo.
