Prophet Magaya demands rape case trial date

Prophetic Healing and Deliverance leader Walter Magaya's lawyers are unhappy at the manner in which the State seemed to drag its feet regarding the church leader's rape case.

According to local media, this came after the prosecution sought a further postponement of the matter to October 21 without giving a trial date. The prosecution said the docket had been sent back to the police for further investigations.

The Magistrate, Ms. Bianca Makwande ordered the State to put its house in order and provide Magaya with a trial date on the next remand appearance.
