In Gauteng,South Africa – Police are currently investigating a case in which a popular bishop from Evaton township is being accused of drugging and raping two of his congregants.
The cleric, whose name has been provided is reported to have on several occasions drugged the women and then raping them after they passed out, reports indicate.
The cleric’s dastardly deeds only came to light after the victims discovered that both of them had suffered sexual abuse at the hands of the preacher, forcing them to launch a police report. More shockingly, the two women who reported the alleged sexual abuse are mother and daughter.
Gauteng police spokesperson Captain Mavela Masondo confirmed that the two cases of rape were opened against the bishop.
Speaking to the publication, both women divulged the disturbing details of the alleged abuse. The 49-year-old mother (name withheld to protect identity) revealed that she was raped soon after joining the church.
‘One evening I went to fetch my daughter from the church. I was approached by one of the ushers who said the bishop wanted to see me.
I left my daughter in the car and went to his office. He said there was a demon in me and rubbed my hands with oil.
I felt my eyes getting blurry and I collapsed. When I woke up, I found him naked and on top of me.
I pushed him away and asked what he was doing. He said he was removing a demon,’ she said.
She said she was terrified when she left the office and kept what had happened a secret because she was in doubt if anyone would believe her since the cleric was revered by many.
More shockingly, the bishop raped her again after having called her to his office on another occasion.
The victim’s 35-year-old daughter also revealed that the bishop used the same modus operandi to raped her.
‘He called me to his office and offered me a glass of water. I don’t know what happened. When I woke up I found him naked and laughing at me. My jeans were on the floor and my privates were wet.’
Investigations are currently underway and the bishop could not be contacted for comment at the time of publishing the article.
