Dukun from Indonesia to Drive Out Toyol in Malaysia

Exorcists or dukun from Indonesia to drive out ‘toyol’[1]

KUCHING: A primary school in Mukah, a coastal town in central Sarawak, is using Indonesian exorcists to drive out a “toyol” which has been causing havoc in the school over the last few months.

An English daily reported that the exorcists spent Wednesday and Thursday nights last week conducting rituals to drive away the toyol.

Led by Kiyai Mashuri Tholib, the group — Prepokan[2] Kesepuhan Siliwangi Pandegeleng — admitted to the paper that they had tried to drive away the evil spirit, but it was not easy. It was not known if the attempt was successful.

Note:

[1] Spelled more correctly in Bahasa Indonesia as “tuyul” (pron: toyol the ‘o’ pronounced like ‘o’ in ‘low’)

[2] Probably “Padepokan” literally means residence but usually refers to a workshop group
