Prophet Bushiri and wife arrested in South Africa for alleged money laundering

South African-based Malawian prophet Shepherd Bushiri the leader of Enlightened Christian Gathering (ECG)  Church has been arrested.

Bushirit picked with his wife Mary

A statement from the church in Pretoria says he was arrested by the Hawks on fraud and money laundering charges.

The church statement said  about 7am on Friday, armed members of the police stormed the Sparkling Waters Hotel in Rustenburg which is owned by the Prophet.

“We were later made aware that they were members of the  Hawks. They took the prophet and our mother, Prophetess Mary Bushiri, in handcuffs to Pretoria,” the statement said.

“As you will remember, from last year, we have struggled with reports that our father [Bushiri] was guilty. He has been detained and is being questioned by the Hawks in Silverton, Pretoria.”

Earlier on Friday, the CRL Commission found that Bushiri was not responsible for the stampede at his Pretoria church where three people died, saying the church fully complied with safety regulations.

The devil is in trouble and all those who are trying to push his agenda by intimidating great men of God. I am for Major One a true servant of God. I have seen great men of God who started their ministries and went but Major One is another kind because he has impacted the entire world with the Gospel including the ones who oppose him. Prisoners in RSA had to fight for him as well. They protested to cause tremendous damage if they brought Major One in prison!!!! Just imagine
