The case in the North West of six congregants who were arrested for an alleged sexual offence has now been handed over to the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), according to the SAPS spokesperson Brigadier Sabata Mokgwabone.

North West NPA spokesperson, Henry Mamothame, confirms that they have taken over the case.

“The case against the six adult congregants, who are facing a charge of contravening the Sexual Offences Act after they were found naked in the presence of 11 minors aged between 4 and 12, was postponed to the 18th of August 2022 for further investigations. They were all granted R2000 bail and are expected to be in court at the next court sitting.”
