Bushiri’s money laundering case: South Africa Police fail to provide evidence, postponed to Aug 29
South Africa Police on Tuesday failed to provide evidence in the money laundering case involving leader of the Enlightened Christian Gathering Church (ECGC) Prophet Shepherd Bushiri and his wife propelling the Commercial Crimes Court in Pretoria, South Africa, to postpone the case to August 29.
The hearing was slated for this Friday but the magistrate convened the court Tuesday.
Spokesperson for the elite crime fighting police unit, the Hawks, Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi, told African News Agency that there was nothing sinister about the Bushiris appearing earlier than the scheduled date, and it was actually the state which sought the early appearance.
“No, it’s not sinister. There is nothing specific about the security concerns but you saw what happened the last time [at court]. We did not want such disturbances. We are at elections and I think it was prudent that we negotiate with the defence,” Mulaudzi explained.
In a statement to his followers on Facebook, Prophet Bushiri wrote: “To all those who are praying and standing with me and my wife for our court appearance which was slated for Friday May 10th, be informed the I appeared today and the court has been adjourned till the 29th of August.”
Bushiri encouraged his church members to be steadfast in prayer.
“Thank you all and continue to pray for us.”
The Bushiri’s were arrested early this year by the Hawks- members of that country’s Directorate for Priority Crime Investigations -for alleged fraud and laundering R15 million (about K825 million).
Hawks in South Africa is considered highly skilled in crime investigations.
It investigated former president Jacob Zuma and the Gupta brothers over alleged fraud and corrupt-related cases.
IT IS A PLEASURE TO KNEEL IN PRAYER, AND STAND WITH PROPHET SHEPHERD BUSHIRI AND PROPHETESS MARY BUSHIRI. THE MAN AND WOMAN OF GOD, AND PHILANTHROPISTS, WORK SELFLESSLY TO BUILD THE KINGDOM OF JESUS.
MAY GOD ALMIGHTY CONTINUE TO STRENGTHEN THEM AND THEIRS, IN JESUS’ MIGHTY NAME.

Re-write the story with facts pls dont rush to put headlines with messed up contents
It is a fact that Mum and Dad did nothing wrong! It is the Leadership of other churches that are losing members in great numbers that are behind the arrests. God of Major 1 is a just God. This case will be dropped and God of Major 1 will now start dealing with all haters. All those who were behind the arrests including those that wrote negative comments about the Prophet and Prophetess will now hear from God Himself. It will be calamity after calamity. The only solution: go to an ECG CHURCH, stand on the Testimony Line , confess… Read more »
What kind of writing is this?
Eeeeeh! What happened to Matthew 5: 44-45?
Anyway, I tell you if that was how God did his business, there would be none left to inhabit this beautiful green earth including your mum and dad. Reference verse for you, Romans 3:23.
God is LOVE and his mercies endures forever-ever-ever-ever-ever. And he calls all his followers to show love unconditionally. So when you say he will be spreading some calamities to people just because they said your dad and mum stole some cash or what ever then ofunika tiimepo pamenepa. Mutiuze kuti mulungu wanuyo ndiutiyo? Chifukwatu pali milungu yambirimbiri tisamanamizanepo apa.
Oh yes!
I am a prophet. I love the good life. Today and tomorrow.
