Has black magic affected you?

BBC Asian Network - Nihal, Has black magic affected you?

Nihal asks whether belief in black magic is a big problem amongst British Asians.

Is belief in black magic a problem amongst British Asians? Plus Shaista Gohair talks about women's rights in Afghanistan and rapper Microphon3 discusses the track I Am Anna.

At 1, Nihal wants to know 's belief in Black magic a big problem amongst British Asians?'

We're asking this because of an email we received from Pinda. In it, the emailer tells us that "Jadhoo is getting out of control, the people that meddle in this stuff and target the vulnerable people should be prosecuted" do you agree? Has jadoo, toona, nazar or jins affected your life? Do you think it's an ancient practice which needs to be put to bed or do you think people are still getting involved in it?


At 2, Today marks ten years of war in Afghanistan and Shaista Gohair, a Muslim women's rights activist and Samira Hamidin, director of the Afghan Women Network will be in the studio talking to Nihal about their 'Green Scarves Project'. 

At 2.30, Rapper Microphon3 will be in the studio discussing his track 'I am Anna' and what the inspiration, Anna Hazare, means to him.
