(Breitbart) A group of around a dozen people in the French department of Essonne are accused of beheading animals in a home to ward off “demons” on Christmas Day, with one man arrested.
The group, said to be of Turkish origin, are accused of killing several animals in a house in Corbeil-Essonnes on Christmas Day after neighbours heard the sound of their cries. Two sheep were later discovered hung upside down, decapitated.
A 33-year-old was arrested in connection with the killing of the animals and transporting them, the newspaper Le Parisien reports.
According to police, the sheep were killed in order to rid the home of “jinn,” an Islamic term for evil spirits or demons, roughly speaking.
