Teen faces severe abuse after being labeled a witch

A man named Mardoche, now 33, has shared his story of childhood abuse after being accused of witchcraft by his relatives in the UK. He moved from the Democratic Republic of Congo after his mother's death and faced severe mistreatment, including confinement and exorcisms. His experiences are depicted in the film "Kindoki Witch Boy," which highlights the psychological abuse he endured. Mardoche's family believed he was possessed, leading to isolation and neglect, as well as attempts to exorcise him of evil spirits. Mardoche's case reflects broader issues of faith-based abuse linked to kindoki beliefs, with recent statistics showing 2,000 social work reports in the UK related to such accusations. His story aims to raise awareness and help others in similar situations.
