School Expels 5 for Being 'Witches'

SANTIAGO (Reuters) - A high school in Santiago has
expelled five girls after accusing them of being witches,
bathing in blood and telling fortunes, local newspapers
reported on Thursday.

``If we had lived in the 16th century, we would be dead. They would have hanged us, drowned us, burned us at the stake,' said expelled student Paula Contreras, daily Las Ultimas Noticias reported.

Lilian Rojas, deputy director of the school, said the girls were aggressive and that their expulsion was a precautionary
measure, daily La Nacion reported.

School officials were not immediately available for comment.
