Pastor Wyson Bellow of Chisomo Ministry in Thyolo who was arrested for raping two women of his church has been found with a case to answer by the Senior Magistrate Resident Assunta Maxwell.

According to reports, Bellow raped the women in the name of anointing them.

Magistrate Maxwell indicated that the accused should mount a defense on two counts of rape under (Sec. 132 of Penal Code) leveled against him for allegedly obtaining sex from two women fraudulently in 2018 and 2019.

She said though the women granted consent, the acts amounted to false representation of the facts as he convinced them through Bible verses that their marital problems would be solved.

The case has since been adjourned to September 20, 2022 this year, in a matter defense lawyer, James Tate Chiundira, says, will parade four witnesses and cross-examine the alleged rape survivors.
