43-year-old church treasurer, Lady Memory Mutsika, has been sentenced to three years imprisonment for stealing over R800,000 belonging to Seventh Day Adventist Church in South Africa.<\/p>\n

Zimbabwean woman was sentenced, after the Pretoria Specialised Commercial Crimes Court convicted her of 128 counts of theft.<\/p>\n

Mutsika’s duties were said to be transferring tithe<\/a>\u00a0and offering money deposited to the church account, to the northern conference of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church.<\/p>\n

But during Mutsika\u2019s prosecution, the spokesperson of the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), Lumka Mahanjana said, \u201cDuring a period of four years from 2012 to 2015, Mutsika transferred more than R800,000 of the money received from the tithe and offerings<\/a> to her bank account and for her personal use.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Times Live, Mutsika, in court, pleaded guilty to the charges and demanded a non-custodial sentence to pay the church back the money over five years.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, the state argued that Mutsika always indicated her willingness to pay back the money and has not paid back a single cent since March 2022, after she was convicted. The magistrate agreed with the state and said Mutsika showed no remorse,\u201d Mahanjana said.<\/p>\n

The NPA\u2019s spokesperson further stated, \u201cHe further said that he viewed Mutsika\u2019s willingness to pay back the money, as a bargaining tool and as a ticket to keep her out of prison. Therefore, a sentence of imprisonment was appropriate and criminal conduct has consequences.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
