Magaya is facing rape charges after a Harare woman filed the criminal charges against him last month.
“I urge all PHD members and sympathisers not to come to court for the hearings. No PHD congregants are allowed at the courts. This is because we don’t want to attract unnecessary attention and also that we do not want people to cause commotion at the courts which might disrupt business.
“We also don’t want to appear as if people are putting pressure on the judiciary, the courts must do their work without being disturbed by people,” Magaya said.
According to court papers, the victim knew Magaya well as she used to be a congregant at his PHD ministries.
Magaya, who is represented by Everson Chatambudza and Oliver Marwa in the current case, is accused of having raped her in June last year, allegedly at his Mt Pleasant residence.
Prosecutors said this had happened after she accepted an invitation from the preacher to visit him, whereupon she was shown around the house.
Later, Magaya had allegedly left her in one of the rooms, before returning naked.
The State claims that Magaya had proceeded to force himself on her once, and allegedly doing so without using protection. It is also the State’s case that after raping her, Magaya gave her $200 after which she later reported the matter to her boyfriend, Elliot Kudakwashe, in July 2015.
The State has lined-up three witnesses in the case.-Dailynews
