It's pretty big business down here for witchdoctors to "bring back lost lovers" and "punish cheaters" - sources. A local tabloid ran the same story with the headline "FREE MY PUNANI".

There's an apartheid-era assassin on trial at the moment with the unfortunate surname of De Kock. I can't tell if the media is having a field day with the headlines or if it's honest-to-goodness obliviousness - also, I am 12. I doesn't help that one of South Africa's cricket players shares the surname. See if you can guess who's being referenced in these headlines. De Kock emerges from 'dark spaces' Calls for probe into De Kock's whereabouts Where in the world is De Kock - reports De Kock is fine - lawyer Amla: De Kock will come good De Kock treated like a king in prison - inmates Ministry stays mum on De Kock And finally: De Kock a valuable SA asset

Translation aside, "Stinking Cheeser" sounds like it comes from the same journalistic school as those Ugandan anti-gay articles that talk about "Monster Whoppers" and the like.
