A Self proclaimed satanist who lured 11 women from Norton on the guise of securing employment for them before robbing and raping them has been sentenced to a 76 year jail term.
Trymore Musakanya ,27,jailed last Friday, was facing 22 counts of rape and robbery was convicted of 17 counts after a full trial.
On the other five counts, the complainants did not show up, therefore the charges were dropped.
He raped the victims in a bushy area after telling them that he was a Satanist.
Musakanya was initialy sentenced to a combined 92 years behind bars but 16 years were set aside on condition he does not commit a similar offence within that period.
Musakanya will serve an effective 76 years in jail.
In his defence, Musakanya denied the charges arguing that the women owed him money hence they were fixing him.
He said he was in the business of money lending before producing some fake documents bearing his wife’s signature, wanting to give the impression that she was a witness during the transactions between him and the women.
He intended to call his wife as his witness but she refused to testify in his favour prompting the court to subpoena her as a court witness. She turned against her husband. The wife told the court that the signature, which was said to be hers on the papers produced by her husband, was forged.
