This is a very funny story, so witchcraft is still taken seriously. They even pay tax. In Swaziland, if a witch flies a broomstick higher than 150 meters(492 feet) in the air, she is subject to arrest and a fine of R500 000 (about $55,000 USD).
Civil Aviation Authority marketing and corporate affairs director Sabelo Dlamini told Swaziland’s The Star Early Edition, “A witch on a broomstick should not fly above the (150m) limit
Illnesses is often considered a curse, and witch doctors pay an annual tax of $1.15. Last year, a member of the Swazi parliament argued that the tax should be raised to help the country deal with its growing debt.
Seriously... Swaziland is one strange Country.
