A Traditional healer commonly known as Omega in Chipungu village in Chief Putas area in Chienge has allegedly raped his 35 year old female patient when she sought treatment.
Luapula Province police commissioner Hudson Namachila confirmed the incident to ZANIS in Nchelenge, yesterday.
Mr. Namachila says the victim as Beatrice Kunda adding that the matter was reported to Chienge police by her elder sister Beatrice Mwewa 55 of the same abode
He said the incident took place on August 16, 2017 at around 16:00hours at Mwewas house when the suspect was called the victim who apparently had been sick but only to allegedly rape her.
Mr Namachila said the victim sustained injuries on her private parts and a swollen neck in the ordeal.
The Police commissioner said no arrests have been made so far as the suspect is on the run.
Very sad indeed. This traditional healer must be punished once caught
Traditional healers or bogus healers?
I hear she decided to see the traditional healer because she was afraid of being subjected to Mandatory HIV testing at the hospital
So what is better an HIV test or to be raped?
This could be just a tip of an iceberg of what goes on unnoticed with some of these so-called Traditional healers. They are proper Scumbags.
Traditional bogus healers tells the women are being cleansed by r a p i n g them.

“…..when she arrived at the house on Wednesday morning, the traditional healer allegedly asked her to undress and inserted “herbal medicine” into her “twenokane”.
According to the woman’s statement, the man then insisted that she have s e x with him in order to complete the ritual. She refused.
The woman said he then allegedly r a p e d her and told her to leave. She left and contacted the police immediately.”
Many so-called are using false pretences to steal money from people, and in cases like this, r a p e them.
“A person can become a victim twice in cases like this, by taking your money and violating you at the same time. Sums of money are taken for nothing in return,”

Both the poor and rich are victims of these fake healers. The poor will work hard to look for money to grace the healers in exchange for instant success in life rather than put the money into good investment, whereas the rich will splash their cash to get control over their rivals in business-all these being false belief that people have been dragged into.
On the flip side, are the conmen with broad smiles as they have ripped easy money where they did not sow? Cases of arrests of these fake conmen have been reported in South Africa and most of these Ugandans are being deported.
It is high time people came out of this darkness of superstitions. There are no elevators in success; one has to take the stairs! If you need a good job, get its qualifications. Dismissals at different places…
Someone lost his pension money to bogus traditional healers who had promised to make him rich by multiplying his money .
It is alleged that the victim started consulting the fraudulent healers in after he saw a pamphlet advertising their services….
Human sacrifice, one of the worst abuses associated with the fraudulent healers !
It will soon become worse because a lot of people will be going to these bogus traditional Killers instead of the clinic in fear of being imposed to mandatory HIV/AIDS testing.
JEHOVAH GOD he is the greatest physician, and why going up to that extent of believing traditional doctors..wen health post hav been implimented: however those are the implications of putting faith and trust in your fellow man rather GOD.
It’s a pity that our women are very gullible. They trust the so called pastors and herbalists. They’re easily taken in.
Sadly ,Traditional healers are protected and allowed to operate freely by the govt. Not many of them are brought to book. Govt do something.
Advice to all parents and relatives of all sick people in Zambia: DO NOT LEAVE YOUR PATIENT ALONE WITH A TRADITIONAL DOCTOR EVEN FOR AFEW (RAPING) SECONDS! and please ensure you personally approve any procedures to be undertaken on your patient. Bogus procedures like inserting medicine into the V area using the P instrument should be resisted outright. I thought by now all traditional healers have been certified and licensed. Bogus healers must lose their certification and licenses so that they stop practicing fake procedures on innocent and vulnerable patients. ATASE!!
Dr Mushota is this happening in your village? Omega sounds like a relative of yours! Any comment?
