BERLIN (Reuters) - A German woman won a lawsuit
against a "love witch" who failed to induce her
ex-boyfriend to come back with rituals under the full
moon designed to cast a spell over him, a Munich court
said Monday.
"The witch lost," said Munich district court
spokeswoman Ingrid Kaps. The 'love witch' was ordered
to return her 1,000 euro ($1,300) fee and pay "several
hundred euros" in costs.
"The plaintiff was in despair after her boyfriend left
and tried to get him to return with help from a woman
who calls herself a 'love witch'," she added. "The
court has ruled it was a service that was 'objectively
impossible' to render."
The witch disputed the plaintiff's claim of a
money-back guarantee, Kaps said. The witch, described
as an elderly woman, also lost an appeal. The
spokeswoman declined to give the names or ages of
those involved.
"A love ritual is not suited to influence a person
from long distance," the court said. "As the promised
service could not be rendered, the plaintiff is not
obligated to pay."
