I would not be against trying to first tell people not to try it, then finding a humane way, if possible somehow, of treating those who do use witchcraft, even (perhaps especially) in a malignant way. However, water torture or burning at the stake horrify me, and they're not very effective at coping with such a problem, I'd guess.
Perhaps an exorcist might need to be called, if a witch/wizard could be successfully subdued. Anyway, we are far from there, and sadly there are much bigger problems that make the news regularly in today's world, which is blinded by science to the exclusion of other possibilities.
