|March 12, 2025
The Senate Standing Committee on Interior has unanimously approved a bill proposing stringent punishments for practitioners, promoters and advertisers of black magic, mandating up to seven years in prison.
The proposed law also stipulates that individuals offering spiritual healing services must obtain a license from the Ministry of Religious Affairs.
Senator Samina Zehri presented the bill in the committee. Following minor amendments suggested by the Ministry of Law, the committee members unanimously passed the draft.
Under the proposed amendment to the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC), section 297-A will be introduced.
