A 20–YEAR-OLD Bindura man, who was exposed by an apostolic
prophet in a prophecy that he was bedding his 15–year–old cousin sister, was
yesterday sentenced to six months in prison by Bindura magistrate Edith
Chichera.
The sentence was, however, wholly suspended on condition
that the convict performs 210 hours of community service at Chiwaridzo Police
Station.
Representing the State, Edward Katsvairo told the court
that the convict had unprotected sex with his cousin sister three times between
April and September this year. The convict gave coins to the complainant to buy
freezits whenever they had sex in order to buy her silence.
However, the matter came to light when the victim’s mother
went to an apostolic sect prophet in Mabvuku, Harare, seeking divine
intervention.
Upon arrival at the place of prayer, she was told that her
daughter was having sex with her cousin and if asked politely, she would
confess as she was being bribed with coins to not divulge the case. Quizzed by
her mother, the minor revealed everything that had happened, leading to the
convict’s arrest. Newsday
