The mother of one of self-proclaimed prophet Shepherd Bushiri’s alleged rape victims says she will never send her child to Malawi to testify in the Bushiri extradition case, if she is requested to do so.
“I will not send my child to Malawi. This will never happen, over my dead body. You cannot trust that man,” the shocked mother, who cannot be named to protect the identity of the victim, told the publication on Tuesday afternoon.
The Lilongwe Magistrate’s Court dismissed the State’s application to have South African witnesses appear via video conferencing and, subsequently, ruled the law requires that the witnesses appear in Malawi.
