Stony Broke

‘MIYI Shongi is not a good shopper.

But a trader in Zimbabwe who took exception to her non-payment of his bill did not resort to the usual legal means of recourse.

Instead, as Shongi alleges, he put a spell on her. Now everywhere she goes, she is plagued by a hail of stones.

Police called to investigate, arrived at Shongi’s home in the village of Lombani and were amazed.

“We were there for nearly the whole night and saw stones falling from the sky like rain,” says one cop.

As a result, police have advised Shongi to find a healer who can break the curse. Or pay her bills.’
