Is the punishment for going to a sorcerer the same as the punishment for one who goes to a fortune-teller or a diviner?

All of them must be prevented by the authorities from doing so, and people must not go to them, nor believe them, even if it is through disciplinary action. The ignorant one is taught, and the learned one is disciplined.
