- "Dear Buckley, No, the Ministry of Magic would not turn a blind eye if you turn your nieces and nephews into blood-sucking ferrets. We will arrest you and you will probably find yourself in Azkaban. I advise you to call a halt to this feud before somebody gets hurt. In the meantime, contact the Office for the Removal of Curses, Jinxes and Hexes, who will take care of both the broomstick and your brother."
- — Dempster Wiggleswade's reply to Buckley Cooper on the Problem Page of the Daily Prophet[src]
The Office for the Removal of Curses, Jinxes, and Hexes was a division of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement at the Ministry of Magic that dealt with the misuse of magic; specifically objects bewitched with the intent to do harm.[1]
History[]
Buckley Cooper once wrote to the Daily Prophet asking for legal advice on the running feud he was having with his brother, during which he received a broomstick, presumably as a gift, which actually had been cursed to whack him around the shins. In response to this, Mr Cooper asked Mr Wiggleswade, an official of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement doubling as an advice columnist, whether the Ministry would "turn a blind eye" if he kidnapped his brother's children and turned them into blood-sucking ferrets.[1]
Mr Wiggleswade strongly advised him against it, and urged him instead to immediately contact the Ministry's Office for the Removal of Curses, Jinxes, and Hexes, which he assured him would take care of both removing the jinx from the broom and deal with his brother for having jinxed it in the first place.[1]
