Forensics, Witchcraft Accusations, and Ritual Murders with Dr. Keith Silika

In this gripping episode, we sit down with Dr. Keith Silika, a Zimbabwean-born criminal investigator whose extraordinary journey has positioned him at the crossroads of two worlds most of us never see intersect.

Raised between his father's traditional healing practice and devout Catholic faith, Dr. Silika brings an unprecedented perspective to one of today's most misunderstood and dangerous phenomena, ritual attacks. From his early days in Zimbabwe's police force to his current work in England's law enforcement and academic circles, he's witnessed firsthand how supernatural beliefs continue to cause  modern-day violence and persecution.

This isn't your typical true crime discussion. It's a deep dive into the complex intersection of culture, belief, justice, and human rights that will  inspire you to explore this critical issue further and engage in important conversations about protecting vulnerable communities worldwide.

Warning: This episode contains discussions of violence and harm that some listeners may find disturbing.
