Harare, June 29 (ANI): Two Zimbabwean women claiming to fly on a winnowing basket using magical powers will face trial in two weeks, a prosecutor has said.

According to News 24, the women, aged 49 and 52, were declared fit for trial in the northern town of Chinhoyi by medical experts, according to prosecutor Clarence Majongosi.

The two women were arrested on June 12 after they were found naked and howling outside the home of a villager.

They are being charged under laws which make 'witchcraft' illegal and the women could face a fine if found guilty.

The prosecutor told the court that the two women instilled fear that witchcraft was taking place and that harm could occur.

The prosecutor alleged that the two women had been seeking out human flesh. (ANI)
