"faith crime"

[Jonathan Lighter]

This excerpt from a BBC story is not at all for the faint of heart.

>From BBC News, June 16 (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4098172.stm):

"Children are being trafficked into the UK from Africa and used for human sacrifices, a confidential report for the Metropolitan Police suggests.

"Children are being beaten and even murdered after being labelled as witches by pastors, the report leaked to BBC Radio 4's Today programme said.

"... The report was commissioned by the Met after the death of Victoria Climbie in February 2000 and because of concerns over so-called faith crimes. "
