Nairobi Pastor Faces Shocking Accusations of Injuring Sick Woman During Deliverance Act
A Nairobi pastor has found himself in a shocking and disturbing situation after being accused of inflicting grievous injuries on a sick woman during a deliverance act. Pastor Daniel Muriithi Njiru, who is associated with the Only Believe Church of God Power of the Holy Spirit, stands accused of unlawfully injuring a 62-year-old woman on August 1st while attempting to heal her.
The woman, whose identity has been withheld, had been suffering from an illness for over three years. Despite countless medical interventions, her condition showed no signs of improvement. In a desperate attempt to help her mother, the woman’s daughter sought advice from a friend who recommended Pastor Njiru’s healing abilities.
Believing that the pastor possessed the power to deliver her mother from the clutches of evil, the daughter brought her to Nairobi to reside with her during the prayer sessions. However, instead of providing solace and healing, Pastor Njiru allegedly instructed the daughter to leave her mother in his care for a week, promising that she would be cured.
It was during this period that the traumatic incident unfolded. The woman was said to be experiencing difficulties with her bowel movements, prompting the pastor’s unwarranted and invasive actions. Shockingly, he allegedly inserted his hand into her private parts, claiming that his intervention would unclog her anal and vaginal passages. Tragically, this act resulted in the woman experiencing excruciating pain, and a piece of flesh was reportedly dislodged in the process.
Neighbors, appalled by the distressing scene, alerted the authorities who swiftly arrived at the house and apprehended Pastor Njiru. The victim was immediately rushed to Mama Lucy Hospital for urgent medical attention. In court, Pastor Njiru faced charges of causing grievous harm to the victim, as presented before Principal Magistrate Irene Gichobi.
Following the hearing, Pastor Njiru was granted temporary release on a bond of Sh100,000 or a cash bail alternative of Sh50,000 pending further investigations and legal proceedings. The case has sent shockwaves through the community, deeply unsettling residents who once held the accused in high regard.
It is of utmost importance to remember that allegations are not proof of guilt, and all individuals should be considered innocent until proven otherwise in a court of law. The investigation into this case will uncover the truth and deliver justice to the victim if necessary.
Instances like these are a stark reminder of the need for discernment and caution when seeking spiritual assistance. While religion provides solace and hope to many, it is essential to exercise judgment and ensure that those entrusted with the care of vulnerable individuals operate with integrity and uphold ethical principles at all times.
