[BREAKING NEWS] Burundian Pastor Arrested After Allegedly Stabbing South African Woman More Than 40 Times Because Her Brother Supports March and March, After His Church was Shutdown
March and March leader Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma revealed that a woman is fighting for her life after she was allegedly stabbed more than 40 times by a Burundian pastor in an attack that has left a family devastated. The suspect was arrested after the incident, while the victim remains in intensive care.
Speaking outside the home of artist Pastor Mjosty, whom March and March publicly acknowledged on 30 June for supporting the movement, Ngobese-Zuma said she received a call from him reporting the incident. She said the victim is Pastor Mjosty's sister and that her young daughter was also stabbed during the attack.
According to Ngobese-Zuma, the woman had previously attended a church run by the Burundian pastor before it was closed. She later joined another church. Ngobese-Zuma alleged that after March and March acknowledged Pastor Mjosty, the pastor contacted the woman to question why her brother supported the movement. She said the woman replied that her brother was free to support whoever he wanted.
Ngobese-Zuma alleged the suspect arrived at the woman's home during the early hours of the morning and stabbed her more than 40 times before attacking her daughter. She said a neighbour chased after the suspect and alerted police, leading to his arrest. She also claimed the suspect had become a car guard after the church closed and described him as a trained soldier.
A later update alleged that the Burundian pastor and the woman had previously been in a relationship. It was further claimed that about a year ago she obtained a protection order against him. According to the update, the suspect later resumed contacting her, saying he believed she ended the relationship because her brother disliked him due to his support for March and March.
The latest update also states that the suspect is currently in hospital after allegedly attempting to take his own life while in a holding cell and is reportedly behaving erratically. The allegations were shared by March and March, while the woman remains in intensive care following the attack.
Ariana is very mature and a great friend. Iโm glad her and Riley could talk that out. Little bit of gaslighting there from niece cause she was embarrassed by her behavior lol but Iโm glad they could work it out. I think a lot of Arianaโs maturity has to do with her having such a childish irresponsible mother tbh #NextGenNYC
