In Britain, they are asking for posthumous pardons for women executed for witchcraft a few centuries ago": The British are trying to rectify a "judicial injustice". "In Britain, they are asking for posthumous pardons for women executed for witchcraft about 400 years ago. In the city of Maidstone in southern England alone, more than 20 women were hanged, and in total, about 5,000 people accused of witchcraft were executed in England and Scotland in the 17th century. Most of them unmarried. Members of the Maidstone City Council intend to appeal to King Charles III with a request to officially pardon all the convicts. They believe that women were victims of injustice and prejudice: they were blamed for diseases, natural disasters, and the death of farm animals. Unlike the residents of Salem, America, who were accused of witchcraft and later pardoned, in Britain, not a single woman convicted of witchcraft has yet been rehabilitated".
