In 1993, Mazlan Idris, a Batu Talam state assemblyman, craved to be more powerful and successful as a politician. He went to a bomoh, another name for a Malaysian Shaman, who was a former wanna-be pop diva named Mona Fandey. He wanted a black magic ritual performed on him. Mona promised that after the ritual, he would get everything he desired. Although, during the ritual, his life came to a brutal end.
