Judge Mandela Makaula who was presiding over the trial, has recused himself from the case.

Zondi is expected back in court to re-testify in the rape trial of Nigerian Pastor Timothy Omotoso.Makaula says his recusal is in the interest of justice.Zondi broke down several times last year during her cross cross-examination at the Port Elizabeth High Court as she gave harrowing testimony of how Omotoso, allegedly raped and sexually assaulted her.

Omotoso is accused of raping and sexually assaulting several women from his Jesus Dominion International Church.Earlier this year, reports emerged that Makaula was linked to a guesthouse used to accommodate state witnesses.With Makaula having recused himself, for witnesses like Zondi, it means opening themselves up to potential secondary trauma.A new judge is yet to be announced.

Yoh! Terrible stuff indeed. I just hope Cheryl stays strong and remembers everything she said. I still think Omotoso is a guilty pig who deserves to rot in jail for what he did to our sister's.

Mlume English mlume lols

Take a sip eNCA.. It's 'relive'.

Di babe doesn't deserve this

This is just f....ing crazzy .How many more times must she go through this hell. Its on tape let the new judge watch that .

Hayibo bethuna, relieve as in relief or relive .... Ndiqasheni apho, ndisitsho nje nam ndingabhideka sometimes, si 'hoog' isilungu

For CherylZondi to relive this traumatic experience is unthinkable. omotoso deserves longtime imprisonment period.

Is it relive or relieve!
