Ncube sat on his chest and he tried to push her away.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;However Mlauzi held his legs together and sat on his top pressing him against the bed<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;Mpofu was in another room and brought condoms and placed them on the complainants manhood and helped to hold him down.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;Ncube had sexual intercourse with the complainant once without his consent&#8217; Mr Shoko said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The three denied raping the pastor but admitted indecent assault.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Ncube said: &#8216;We were just playing around Your Worship. I did not think that he would take it seriously&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Mpofu denied taking part but admitted bringing the condoms saying: &#8216;We keep them around the house and I just brought them&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Mlauzi said she wanted to &#8216;fix&#8217; the pastor who she claimed had a habit of walking in on the women when they were bathing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">She said: &#8216;He always walks in on me bathing and claims to be unmoved as a man of God. I just wanted to see if he was going to be aroused or not.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;I did not plan to execute the whole rape thing Your Worship&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Magistrate Lungile Ncube was told by Mlauzi that she just wanted to prove to the pastor that he had &#8216;feelings like everybody else&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">She said: &#8216;I wanted him to see that he was not special and was not immune to sexual arousal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;When I touched him he immediately got aroused and that is all we wanted to see&#8217; she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The complainant was taken to Mpilo Central Hospital for a medical examination and the report will be prepared for the magistrates.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">All three were remanded in custody until August 7 for a full trial.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Earlier this month a 39-year-old teacher was hospitalised in Zimbabwe after claiming a gang of three women kidnapped, drugged and raped him for two days.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The man from Makoni in Chitungwiza was left with severely bruised genitals and doctors at Waza Hospital found other signs of sexual abuse after he was dumped by the roadside.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Police are still trying to find the three women who are allegedly part of a &#8216;sperm bandit&#8217; gang preying on hitchhikers and travellers and steal and sell their semen for &#8216;good luck&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">There is no suggestion the two alleged crimes are related.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Source: Daily Mail<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Three women have appeared before a court accused of gang raping a pastor who went round to their home to demand money they owed him.
