A 44-year-old Egyptian man threatened Saudi police trying to arrest him for sorcery to unleash ‘jinn’ against them. But despite his arrest, he did not carry out his threat.
Police in Makkah seized the unnamed sorcerer after reports that he used magic to control a Saudi family.
“He succeeded in controlling the Saudi family by making them believe that there is a treasure under their house and he was trying to unearth it for them,” the Saudi Arabic language online newspaper Sabq said, quoting police sources.
It said the Saudi couple and their two daughters aged 33 and 35 years had allowed the sorcerer to live with them in the same house after he cast a spell on them. “Police raided the house after receiving reports from neighbors and arrested the man.
“During arrest, he threatened to bring jinn to the police,” the paper said. “But his jinn did not protect him as he was arrested and taken to the station … police found many talismans and magic items in the house.”
Witchcraft is strictly banned in Saudi Arabia in line with Islamic law and those convicted of involvement in such acts are severely punished.

Send him and his jinn to my house, I've got the ice and olives.......
My train of thought derailed and slammed into the station.
LOL!
He's dead, Jinn.
