eMBALENHLE – A woman who is eight months pregnant was allegedly raped by a traditional healer on Friday, 5 April.
The woman was not feeling well and decided to consult the traditional healer who also claims to be a prophet.
The suspect allegedly told the woman to undress so he can apply muthi.
The woman allegedly resisted, but the so-called prophet insisted that she undress.
According to the police, the man rubbed the victim’s stomach with muthi and proceeded to her genitals.
It is alleged that the healer then pushed the pregnant woman onto a couch and allegedly raped her.
Police said this is becoming a trend in the area.
They urged women to rather have someone accompany them when visiting a traditional healer.
