He was arrested
on Saturday morning by a crack team from the ZRP for “several reports of rape
and fraud.” A statement from police promised more details but there was nothing
further on the case as of late yesterday.
As a result of
his arrest, Prophet Magaya missed yesterday’s church service.
However,
despite the current settings, the church continued with plans for the Night of
Turnaround scheduled for this Saturday.
And while the
rest of Zimbabwe is anxious on the court case, PHD members gathered yesterday to celebrate their
leader.
Some members
went as far as viewing the incident as a fulfillment of scripture and a
testament to his ministry.
One of his
overseers, Timothy Marasha, took to the pulpit to deliver a sermon aimed at
inspiring hope among the congregation.
Opening the
Bible to Luke 4:1, which states, “Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the
Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,” Overseer Timmy drew
parallels between the prophet’s experience and the biblical narrative of Jesus’
40 days of fasting and temptation.
When H-Metro
visited Prophet Magaya at the police holding cells, he appeared reluctant to
speak, offering only a brief statement: “This is where I am; that is all I can
say.”
At the police
holding cells, only his wife, mother and lawyer were allowed to visit him.
