The main advocate behind the Criminal Offences Amendment Bill 2022, Francis-Xavier Sosu, which specifically prohibits attacks on alleged witches, has emphasized the government's responsibility to ensure the reintegration of these individuals from various witch camps across the country.

The recently passed Criminal Offences Amendment Bill 2022 makes it illegal for anyone to act as a witch doctor or witch finder and prohibits the act of declaring, accusing, naming, or labeling someone as a witch.

Furthermore, the bill declares all witch camps in the country to be unlawful.

Addressing journalists after the bill's successful passage, Sosu expressed his belief that this legislation would rectify societal issues related to witch accusations.

He urged the government to find appropriate methods to reintegrate alleged witches from the various witch camps into mainstream society.

“The law also requires that, within a period, the Minister of Gender will take steps to reintegrate people who are held in various camps. The reintegration may take various forms because when we visited the various camps, some were essentially like a home for the alleged witches, so their reintegration may be that you provide support for them and others may require that they go back to their homes,” he added.
