Congregants Begin Experiencing Health Issues After Being Sprayed With Insecticide By South African Prophet.

20-year-old Thabiso Chabalala on Wednesday, revealed to the court that she spent seven months coughing and with swollen eyes after Prophet Lethebo Rabalago sprayed her with insecticide.

Prophet Rabalago from the Mountzion General Assembly in Limpopo, South Africa, who has styled himself as a prophet, was charged with five counts of assault and contravening environmental laws after images of him spraying congregants with Doom went viral in November last year.

Chabalala (pictured) testified in the ongoing trial against Lethebo Rabalago at the Mookgophong Magistrates Court on Wednesday.

This is Rabalago’s second legal battle after the provincial health department obtained an interdict in the Limpopo High Court against him in May.

Chabalala told the court that she regretted allowing Rabalago to spray the pesticide on her. She said she responded to calls for the sick to come forward during a church service at Phomolong township last year.

Presiding magistrate Frans Mahodi asked Chabalala how she felt when she saw Rabalago holding the insecticide can.
