Swaziland aviation authorities warn witches against flying too high

LOL! This is serious..read further
Swaziland has launched a crackdown on high-flying witches after banning them from hovering above 150metres.

It has been a long time since witches were burnt at the stake in Europe but the accusation remains a serious one in the landlocked African country.
Anyone caught flying their broomstick above the height limit faces arrest and a hefty R500,000 fine, the country's civil aviation authorities said this week.
'A witch on a broomstick should not fly above the [150-metre] limit,' corporate affairs director Sabelo Dlamini told The Star.
The new aviation law was highlighted after a private investigator was caught flying a helicopter equipped with a video camera to gather surveillance information.
Witchcraft is taken seriously in Swaziland where many people believe in the power of black magic.
Last year a leading Swazi MP called for a hike in tax paid by witch doctors to help ease the cash-strapped country's financial woes.
