Key Witness, Cheryl Zondi Weeps Uncontrollably As Court Acquits Nigerian Pastor Timothy Omotoso On All Charges Of R@pe And Human Trafficking (Video)

Cheryl Zondi, a key witness in the case against the senior pastor of Jesus Dominion International (JDI), could not hold back tears in court after the Nigerian clergyman was discharged and acquitted for r@pe and human trafficking.  

TORI reported that the High Court in Gqeberha, Eastern Cape, South Africa acquitted the 66-year-old pastor and his co-accused, Lusanda Sulani and Zikiswa Sitho, on Wednesday, April 2, 2025.  

The trio faced 32 counts of charges which included racketeering, trafficking in persons, r@pe and s3xual assault.

The ruling, which has shocked many, left Zondi visibly distressed as she reacted to the verdict.

In 2018, Zondi, who claimed she was s3xually assaulted by pastor Omotoso, waived her right to anonymity in the trial because she wanted the world to know the type of person he is.

"We took it upon ourselves to go through a humiliating process to have our dignity stripped from us in public, to be called names and have lies and all sorts of fabrications spread about us online, walking in the streets. Our lives have never been the same since we came out about this and one has to wonder if this is what the last years have come down to," she said.
