chosen: It depends on the context. According to medieval beliefs, drowning was seen as a more effective way of getting rid of a suspected witch, as it was thought to be a more painful death than burning. On the other hand, burning was seen as a symbolic act of removing the witch's power and purifying them of any alleged witchcraft. In modern day, it is recommended that any form of torture or capital punishment should be avoided and anyone suspected of witchcraft should instead face fair and reasonable legal proceedings.
