A Boksburg pastor appeared in the Germiston Magistrate’s Court on Monday for allegedly taking part in the rape and molestation of a nine-year-old boy during a satanic ritual.
The pastor is accused of taking part in the rape along with the boy’s grandparents and uncle.
The case was initially not pursued in 2013, but the SAPS Occult-Related Crime Unit was brought in to investigate and the four were arrested last month.
The rape and molestation of the boy had allegedly taken place multiple times, possibly over a number of years.
A satanic ritual allegedly took place at the Gospel Church of God in Witfield, where they four adults are said to have dressed in masks and red robes, praying in strange tongues while standing in a circle, The Star reported.
