Saadiya Saleh produces little hard stones under her eyelids, which has gripped the villagers with the fear that she is possessed by the devil’s magic, the Mirror reported.
Doctors said they couldn’t give an explanation for this phenomenon since the 12-year-old girl isn’t suffering from any known disease.
A YouTube film aired by Yemen’s Azal satellite TV channel showed doctors gathering a small box full of stones that dropped out of the girl’s eyes in just a few hours.
