Omotoso trial: 'This is about justice' - Cheryl Zondi prepared to testify 'over and over again'

Cheryl Zondi says she is prepared to take the stand again to testify against her alleged abuser, Nigerian pastor Timothy Omotoso, until justice is served.

"I don't care how many times I have to tell the truth or go through the same process over and over again. This is about justice. Omotoso's lawyer, Peter Daubermann, applied for the judge's recusal claiming that the judge was biased towards Zondi.Allegations also emerged that Judge Makaula allegedly had an interest in a guesthouse where witnesses were accommodated, but Zondi said she had no knowledge of this."I stayed in a guesthouse arranged by the State. I did not know who it belonged to or anything of that sort," she said.

Omotoso, 60, and his co-accused Zukiswa Sitho, 28, and Lusanda Sulani, 36, face 97 charges, including rape and human trafficking.
