Enlightened Christian Gathering Church leader Prophet Shepherd Bushiri has handed himself over to the Hawks. His wife Mary was arrested at her home in Sandton on Monday. The arrests are for their alleged involvement in fraud and money laundering worth R102 million.
The church has since issued the following statement:
The Hawks informed lawyers of our leaders, Prophet Shepherd Bushiri and Prophetess Mary Bushiri, late Monday afternoon that they (Hawks) are requesting the couple to go to their office by 11am accompanied by their lawyers to discuss an issue concerning a certain investment pertaining to certain company.
We are told as the Prophet and lawyers were getting prepared for the 11am appointment, the Hawks went to their house before the 11am appointment and arrested the Prophet's wife alone.
We are told the Prophet is on his way to the Hawks office to hand over himself. He believes in the justice system of the country and he will abide to all what the law compels until all this war is done.
As the matter is still currently under criminal investigation, we have been advised not to discuss this matter any further.
