'Haunted' Saudi woman tortures herself to death
2011-12-24
[Emirates 24/7] A Saudi woman said to be haunted by jinn (spirits) beat and tortured herself with fire until she fell unconscious and died later at hospital.

The 40-year-old woman was admitted with severe burns and injuries to King Fahd hospital in the western town of Madina and doctors said they tried in vain to save her life.

"We have determined that the woman beat herself up and tortured herself with fire because she is gripped by jinn," police front man Colonel Abdullah Al Sarani told the Saudi Arabic language daily Okaz.

"Investigation showed the other members of her family are also controlled by jinn...we closed the case as no criminal act is involved."

#4  Well, when you kick out or drive underground all the jews, all the christians (at least the ones who aren't foreigners hired for their skills), ban all expression of christianity including the bible... any expression of any religion other than Islam...

I think it would stand to reason that if this is coincident with a flood of reports of hostile supernatural entities...

that they're not living their lives right, and their 'choice' (or lack thereof) of religion is a part of the problem.
