Self-proclaimed prophet Shepherd Bushiri's lawyer on Friday handed in papers to the court, purportedly from the Malawian government, stating that Bushiri and his wife were given Malawian diplomatic passports but not diplomatic status.

Advocate Annalie Van den Heever maintained her clients were not a flight risk, and were prepared to pay a bail amount of R200,000.

The matter has been rolled over to Monday for both parties to continue with their arguments for the formal bail application.Magistrate Thandi Thelede said both the defence and state must prepare heads of arguments over the weekend. However, Bushiri denied that he and his wife are a flight risk as all passports in their names have been handed over to the investigating officer. He has also denied that his property is up for sale.

The state also argued that the Bushiris use their various personal and business bank accounts to fund each other so that they seem like they are running a legitimate business whereas there is evidence of money laundering.

Can this country start all over back to 1994 and select the harshest government with no messy at all to these criminals. *FFS* South Africa is a shit country to leave in, thanks to its fn' leaders

Tsotsi

The most corrupt swine on earth

Diplomatic passport means he’s a government representative for his country. So the Malawian government sent him to come be a con man in RSA?

This is another separate case! Bushiri has to account to his new government Malawi. How did he qualify to be given a diplomatic passport,has never worked in government. Bushiri

It’s all these fraudulent documentations . No bail for them ! And may anyone who helped them attain these documents be arrested as well.

This guy performs miracles. It's possible that he can escape in prison. He is powerful. Man of God

So he had diplomatic passport for making people drink water and making them fall in his church? Meanwhile elonmusk makes rockets & spaceships that take people to space but no diplomatic passport. What did we do in Africa to deserve this nonsense?

Who did they bribe? Who is the ambassador to Malawi?

2020 was a year of exposing all the scams that people have been subjected to for all these years. from government to civilians

I thought diplomatic passports are only issued to diplomats and consul workers, as well as individuals employed by the government of a specific jurisdiction.

Where are Guptas? They must not give foreigners bail

Why are you so slow😌😌😌😌

How do you get one without the other? 🤔🤔🤔

I heard they Granted him Bail? Is that true 🤔

What is the difference if I may ask?

Fraudulent passport
