"Sumpah pocong " is an indonesian tradition which is referred to a
religion. It is simply swering before God that you didn't do something
you are accused of or your accusation addressed at someone is not a lie
Sumpah pocong is held when there is no way of proving whether
someone is guilty or not. It is held by the guidance of a religious
leader who is believed to own magical power. The bodies of those who do
this swearing are covered by white cloths. And
next the religious leader is guiding them to swear before God.For the
one accused of doing something , for example, he is accused of
practising voodoo to kill someone or make them seriously ill, is going
to swear that he has never had voodoo to hurt someone. And the ones who
give the accusation swear before God that their accusation is not a lie.
The risk of this swearing is very scary , that's to say , that whoever
lies to God will die soon or get nastily cursed.
