*Zimbabwe Catholic Priest Rapes Maid

By Masterweb News Desk

Zimbabwe police arrested a 33-year-old Roman Catholic priest for allegedly raping a 17-year-old girl who worked for him. He raped her a second time and asked her to marry him to cover up the crime, the girl( name withheld ) alleges.

The incident occurred in a Catholic Church in Mwenezi where the priest lived in separate rooms with the maid. Inspector Tinaye Matake, police spokesman for Masvingo Province confirmed the incident to Zimbabwe Sunday News. He said the priest had since been arrested and was in police custody. Inspector Matake speaking to the press, said the name of the priest would be made public once the case against him is investigated and charges filed in court.

According to the police spokesman, the priest sometime in August this year advertised for a maid to help with Church errands. The priest settled for the 17-year-old victim who is also Catholic, after screening of several candidates. The alleged victim moved from her Gokomere area residence into the Church in Mwenezi.

In September no sooner than the girl moved into the Church than the priest took her to his room and had sex. The girl alleges that sometime in September, she was required to prepare and serve food at a scheduled event in the Church and when she went to the priest’s room to inform him she was leaving for the event, he invited her to the bed and raped her. He threatened to terminate her job if she reported the sexual encounter and promised not to do it again, the girl told the police.

The priest breached his promise on October 18. In the evening of that day according to the girl, the priest woke her up for her to prepare food for visitors and caressed her as she prepared the food. His kitchen romance of the girl ended up in a bedroom sex romp as the priest took her to his bedroom.

After the second rape encounter according to the victim, the priest asked her to marry him saying he was in love with her. She believed she was being used and reported the incidents to Masvingo Provincial Police Victim Friendly Unit, while the priest was away in Mutare for a church meeting.

Catholic priests are sworn to celibacy vow, which bars them from marrying and fornication. The priest’s parish nor the Vatican at the time of this report had not made any statement on the case.

it is about time, the priest in question re-examines his job role. no need pretending to celibacy, resign and get married immediately. I will suggest he marries the girl if she agrees, that is the only way he can save his face.

If it is true that celibacy made a priest to rape a woman, how do you explain it when a married man rapes a woman?

Well, vow of celibacy or not, the priest is a human being, prone to animal desires. Remember, "abuse" does not do away with "use". The priest in question is one in a million. That one person erred in his celibate life does not make celibacy impossible and inhuman. There are a million others who keep to their vows. The fact that cars sometimes get involved in accidents does not mean that cars should not be driven anymore. The number of cars that get involved accidents in a day is infinitesimal compared to the number of cars that do not get involved in accidents in a day. Yet people still drive their cars. Moreover, that law that cannot be broken is not meant for man. Laws are made in view to catch and punish offenders. The law that cannot be flouted, is no longer a law. I therefore advice the Zimbabwean Christian community to go about their religious activities and not to be dissuaded by side-comments, what has happened is one of those lessons that happen in life and history. After all, their is no religion or facet of life that does not record abuses. Abuses must be there, it is a necessity.

heheheheh chineke eriela ariri~!!!!!!! when this type of thing is happening in the house of God, what next is remaining for them to do???? the wadges of sin is death. Priests please if u guys cant hold body, kindly resign from the work and seek the face of a woman who can help to supply that which u wanted since ur calling is no longer to work for God. may God forgive those that are putting causes of thier heads prestending to be serving God. SOME PASTORS IN BANGKOK THAILAND who uses the NAME GOD to do undo should wait for Gods visitation in their ministries and lifes!!!! BEWARE!!! GOD IS NOT A MAN AND ANY SEED THAT MAN SOWS, HE SHALL REEP AT at the appointed time.

I have said this before and I shall continue to say it,the catholic doctrine that priests should not get married is no longer relevant.If it ever did work,that was during the days of yore.We should face the fact and tell ourselves the truth.The girl was bold enough to go and report this priest.What of numerous others that are not reported or uncovered?I once lashed a young man who has a knack for sleeping with married women.During my admonition, I told him that the worst offence one would do to a man is to sleep with his wife.I went further to educate him that a man can forgive you if you mess with his money ,but not with his wife_that whether a man is rich or poor,weak or strong,sick or healthy,his wife should be left for him_that it annoys man and God_-that no man had ever slept with another man's wife without pestilence from God.After listening pensively to my lecture,he told me that one of the married women he had had sexual intercourse with confided in him that the first sexual intercourse she had outside wedlock was with a catholic priest.According to him it happened when she and her husband took their first baby to church for christening.The officiating priest could not take his eyes off her.That evening the priest came to their house.While her poor husband was busy running around for what to entertain their ausgust visitor,he told her in a low tone to see him in the office the next Tuesday.She immediately knew what he meant.The next Tuesday,she went and the priest was able to seduce her.From that moment they became regular sex mates.She had a baby for him.Iam a Catholic,but I believe in realism.The fact is that the oath of celebacy is no longer relevant.Let the priests get married like other men.If a married priest leaves his wife for another man's wife, he has a more serious case to answer before God.

In September no sooner than the girl moved into the Church than the priest took her to his room and had sex THAT WAS NOT A RAPE, he invited her to the bed and raped her. STILL NOT A RAPE, He raped her a second time and asked her to marry him to cover up the crime, PLEASE WE MUST LISTEN CAREFULLY ,

THE PROBLEMS IS THE SO CALLED PRIEST DID NOT MEET ALL THE PROMISES HE MADE TO THE SO CALLED MAID ,THEN SHE WENT AND REPORT TO THE LAW

This sexual trist with religious freaks is getting too much even amongst
non Catholic denominations and the worst are married clergies going crazy
with every woman they see. Why can't these sluppy looking slow moving
twisted minded maniacs make-up their minds about sex ? The slump is present religious dovotions todays are associated with gross infidelity of the
clergies. Majority of God fearing citizens are increasingly becoming reluctant
to attend any religious services conducted by repugnant crime oriented clergies. Thus, what does it tell, that a leading clergy in pursuit of salvation
is a public enemy aswell ? I rather pray alone in my house than allow the devil possessed clergy lead the sermon to God. Amen !

I pray that GOD will in His infinite mercy will forgive u. Been a priest does qualify u to make heaven but to be truely born again John3:3.

Celibacy is a call. We must not decieve ourselves that if we not are given we can never live it. It is better for the Priest to get married since that will not stop him from serving God.The married are also serving God. Everyone that will ever serve God should be prepaered to crusify his or her flesh.

It's unfortunate! If the Priest cannot abide by his promise to GOD and have
control over the nature, he should marry his own wife. After all, having
wife is not a sin before GOD. I advise that, we should not be quick to judge
because the Priest is a human being and cannot also be tempetd.

I support the saying that "Goat and Yam" shouldn't be kept together. It is better for the Priests to have male cooks than female. Priests too are human beings prone to temptation. I support what St. Paul says in 1Cor.7:1-9 that "One should marry instead of burning with passion". So, Priests that cannot control themselves should marry. Priesthood is ordained by God and not an employment venture. Ensure that you have a call before entering into it. May God Help Us

To me this issue is not a rape, if it was a rape as she claimed, report to the police must be immediately after the first action. As it is, there is an agreement between the two, may be something went wrong along the line that necessitated the report to the police .Again if there is no mutual agreement why is it that the girl in question did not get pregnant after many rounds of sexual intercourse.

In my opinion, both are to be blamed here. The 17year old girl who claimed to be catholic is supposed to have morals to resist sex advances by anybody at all. Besides she should have resigned her job to prevent such occurences if she cannot manage the situation. The priest have allowed himself fall into temptation and have sinned if the allegation against him is true. No body is exepted from sin. Sin is punishable by God. Like other comments, his behavior is not enough to condemn the catholic faith on celibacy. It's very biblical. What he did is not different from what many other persons do be it catholic priest, pastors, christians or non-christians. Besides I do not believe it was because he was celibate but because of his person. What about the pastors or other men that are married and still go about sleeping with other women and girls? How do you explain it. It all boils down to whom you are and what u are.

Anyway this is no new story anymore! but i don't see a rape here at all. I think both of them have been enjoying
themselves maybe she kind of knew the priest was not going to marry her because one cannot collect the sacrament of priesthood and holy matrimony and since he has already been ordained as a priest his getting married to her will be in the next worl he comes. to the priest: You are a disgrace to all catholics becos i think priesthood is not a do or die profession since you knew you will not be able to hold tight the promise you made before God you can as well get married and save your self from this public disgrace. for the maid just tell the whole world he didn't keep to his promise instead of say he raped you, you both were just having fun at least at your age you should know what love making and rape is. He only made love to you. lastly I think this is a lesson for priest of his type (because there are many of them out there) that definately one day God will expose them.

"He, without sin, cast the first stone" All,{ the priest, you and i} are snners hence, the need for redemptin. Sex is one of the basic needs of man.Thus, the priest should not be cruxified by peoeple who may be even worse than him. It is natural to answer nature's call ,which he just did. Encourage him to marry, if possible, that same girl. Then, his sin would have been naturally neutralized

I wouldn't want to blame the priest but i would only criticize their doctrine .By and large,Allah in His infinite wisdom has created man to find repose in the woman after the long hours of work as written in the Holy Quran 21 v 30.Naturally men are very weak whenever it comes to sex.That is why muslim men are commanded by Allah to marry when they are financially capable.May Allah forgive us.

This is not a case of rape as both parties agreed before the sex.How can a girl be raped 1st,2nd and 3rd before going to report.Note that non Catholics can be ssy anything they like against a catholic priest.Besides celicy as i understand is abstinance from marriage and not fornication.They are human beings like us and like fishes in the water that cannot deny of drinking water.Priest still command respect otherwise i dont see why the name will not be published as well as that of the girl.There has been cases of setup and priest not living up to their expectation thereby leading to exposure.I am not exonerate the priests anyway but......theres an adage which says...onye akpala nwagu aka n'ody,ma odindu ma onwuruanwu

I am sure the priest has proved himself unfit for celibacy. He should be ready to marry and resign the Catholic priesthood. And all those who are pretending to be practicing celibacy should also know that whatever hidden must be made open one day.
Please let the girl forgive him and settle and marry the priest to save him from burning.

From the statement recorded, the priest erred before man and God. This is because in Christian communities, and Catholic for that matter, the man of God is highly reverenced. Now, how can he lead any congregation again with husbands entrusting their wives and daughters to his sheparding and counselling? Too bad that he fell into the desire of the flesh. Why didn't he go for the nuns? At least it can be fairly well understood even though it is still a break of the vow. Well, I just pity the aftermath of the whole scenario. May God forgive ALL men.

Celibacy is a part of the priest life and no one can change that in the RCC. what about men and women who too marital vow during matrimony and still commit adultry?

may the good lord grant all religious priest the strength to carryout that which they have choosed to do as celibate in Jesus name,

I know that this will be an opportunity for those who have problem with Catholic coctrines or the Catholic Church to vomit their griviances. The priest, though he made a vow of celibacy, is a human being and as such subject to make mistake. If king David in the Bible could kill a man and sleep with his wife and still remain a friend of God after his repentance, why shold I be supprised that a priest made the same mistake. I would rather pray for the priest to stand firm and practice what he preaches than judge him as if I am better of.

Why is it that whenever it is reported that a catholic priest was not faithful to his vow of celibacy some peolpe feel that celibacy should be abolished? What of the many cases of married clegy of other denominations and even lay people who are unfaithful to their marital vows. Should we also abolish marriage because some married people are not faithful? The priest made a mistake. May God forgive him and may we forgive him. I pray that he comes out of this a better priest.

Priests are human-beings like every other person, the best thing is to pray for them. Because anybody can be tempted. The only things I will advise them is to work in wisdom of God. How can a Priest bring in a young lady like to be his close office staff, anyway, this one has done it already, we should forgive him and focus to the service of God.

Priest or no priest, he is human and has feelings like every oda being. but the issue is dat he lacked the spirit to overcome. the bible says dat temptations dat is greater to us wl not come our way and dat in every temptation God wl give us a way out. He was just carried away by lust and carnality. he could have avoided it he had wanted. he only allowed devil to possess his yielding desires.

It takes two to tangle, had it been the girl was not interested in it, she should have alerted the Police. For the very fact that she was silenced about it until now shows that she was interested. The church should not be blamed. More so, the Priests are not angels, they are human beings like u and I, thus we should be careful in casting the first stone.

Church history has clearly proved that right from the beginning of the Roman Catholic Church, their so-called reverend fathers and bishops have never been true servants and ministers of God. So the raping of a young lady by a Roman Catholic priest in Zimbabwe shouldn't surprise any true Christian and child of God. This kind of immoral practice has been going on right from the beginning of the so-called church of God. These people are nothing but last days' false prophets and deceivers. They should therefore repent and stop deceiving both themselves and the world.

God will help us all, none of us are free to stand before the presence of the Almighty God, in that case no one has the right to stone the priest to death because the anger of God will surely fall on anyone that dares it. And thou shalt not judge so that u'll not be judge, now, we've not heard the priest own side of the story but i know ladies can go to any extent if they want to deal with a man, maybe the priest did it or not, but it should be left to God, for he sees in the secret, and if the girl has no plans either to frustrate the priest or to set him up, why did she kept quiet for the first one to happen, and the second, which she enjoyed together with him and now has a plan to set him up, but God knows the truth of all. In conclusion the parishioners should be employing male cooks, rather than female ones. because from clap ur hands dance go start, and u cant give a dog bone to hold. May God forgive all of us. Amen.

The priest is just like us, all of us are the ordinary human being. But why he wanted to be a priest if he could not resist his sex desire.

Lilian, Please don't talk of male cook. What if the priest is bi-sexual? That will make the story worse. Simply, the job of cooking for the priest should be reserved for older matured people who can easily say no to a priest. The younger kids will often be vulnerable to such assault. A celibate priest is still flesh and blood as long as he is alive. I personally would have like to be a priest, but I doubt my ability to control my sexuality, so I'm married, even at that, it is still a continuous struggle to avoid derailling.

WHOIS DECEIVING WHO? ONE CANNOT EAT HIS CAKE AND HAVE IT. LET HIM COME OUT AND ENJOY THE MARRIED LIFE. THE PRIEST MUST REMOVE THE CASSOCK FIRST, GO TO PRISON AND WHEN HE IS BACK, HE SHUOLD BE RETRAINED FOR MARRIED LIFE.

Truely a heinous act. So many unfortunate actions all over the world from "catholic men" makes one question...if it is so unnatural why go again the will of God to go forth and procreate?

That was a disgrace to the Catholic Churches, it shouldn't be that way. I can't say anything.
