The woman reported the matter on Tuesday after realising
she had been duped.
The victim has since been referred to Edith Clinic for
medical examination.
Harare provincial police spokesperson, Assistant Inspector
Webster Dzvova, confirmed the case.
“Police are investigating a case involving a Hatfield woman
who was raped by a man only identified as TK, on March 20, 2022, at around
12pm,” said Asst Insp Dzvova.
“The complainant was walking along Nirvana Road, Hatfield,
when she was approached by the accused person, who was driving a white motor
vehicle, yet to be identified.
“Accused person offered a lift to the complainant, since
they were going in the same direction, and she agreed.
“Along the way, the accused pretended as if he was a
prophet and convinced the complainant to go with him to her residence, so that
he could perform some rituals.
“When the two arrived at the complainant’s home, the
accused person asked the complainant to spread a white cloth and asked for
coarse salt and a cup of water.
“The accused person started to pray by putting some cross
signs on the complainant’s legs and hands, using the water.
“The accused person asked the complainant to remove her
pants and urinate in the bucket and she complied.
“The accused caressed the complainant and raped her once
without protection,” Asst Insp Dzvova said.
He said a number of people were falling prey to these false
prophets, either getting raped or being robbed. H Metro
