Two Arabs nabbed practising witchcraft

"DOHA • Two Arab nationals have been arrested on charges of duping people by promising them promotion in their work place through witchcraft.

The arrests were made by the Crime Prevention Unit of the Ministry of Interior headed by Major Mannahi Khalid Al Hajri.

Acting on a tip-off, detectives from the unit laid a trap and caught the man and his aide red-handed. They were nabbed with the paraphernalia like talisman and oil, among other things, they used to perpetrate their crime."

That begs the question of what the actual charge reads: are they being arrested for running a scam, or are they being arrested for witchcraft?

So if the customers GET promoted, they're not being duped, so the arrest would be invalidated. Hmmm, wonder how this is gonna play out...!
