The answer

Accusing a specific person of sorcery without evidence is forbidden and requires repentance. The symptoms mentioned are not necessarily indicative of sorcery. However, if there is a strong presumption that it is sorcery, it should be treated with legitimate (exorcism). As for marriage, you are not religiously obligated to marry someone you do not desire, and pressuring you to do so is religiously displeasing. However, if the suitor is religious and of good character, and you marry him seeking affection for the sake of kinship, we hope you will receive abundant reward.
