killings to obtain blood or body parts still occur

It's called Muti (meaning: medicine) murder in South Africa. It's practised throughout Africa. Children, unfortunately, are the favoured victims. I read somewhere that Swaziland has the highest number of muti murders, but it's very common in South Africa as well. Beyond vile and hideous!
