  student fined for stealing us$4 000court & crimefeaturesm 21 hours agoby tunomukwathi asino.

  windhoek a polytechnic of namibia (pon) student probably has to ensure she does not miss the next jehovahs witnesses gathering, as it appears her faith helped her escape prison.

  she was fortunate magistrate jermaine muchali sentenced her to a fine and did not send her to jail for stealing from a fellow member of the jehovahs witnesses church, where she lives as an orphan.. selma nambi, 21, was convicted of stealing us$4 000 (n$40 000) from nadia lourdes manuel da silva, who is also a member of the church, on 8 february this year.. she was arrested on 24 july.

  a yound sister was severely counciled by the elders for wearing a denim "jean skirt" to the hall last year.

  she left with tears in her eyes and never returned.. for the last 50 years denim jeans have been banned at the brooklyn bethel breakfast table.. i understand denim jeans are banned even by tourists visiting beth ell.

  billy explained the pants situation in past posts.. so my questions are: what other instances are there of denim bans by watchtower ?

  second victim of jailed church elder speaks out7:47am thursday 24th july 2014 in news.

  speaking out: tina guy (8481415)a second victim of jailed jehovah's witness elder mark sewell has stepped forward to tell of her ordeal at the hands of the convicted rapist.. tina guy, a former employee of sewell, has told of her horror at recalling an incident where she was driven onto wasteland against her will and locked in a car by him - only to narrowly escape from the man who had already committed rape.. when sewell drove mrs guy onto barren land at barry docks in the mid 90s, she had no idea that the boss who had targeted her with a campaign of suggestive behaviour and an eventual indecent assault had already committed a rape just a few years prior.. sewell, 53, of porthkerry road, barry, was jailed for 14 years at merthyr crown court earlier this month after being found guilty of raping a fellow churchgoer, indecently assaulting two young girls - including his niece karen morgan - and also indecently assaulting mrs guy in their workplace.. mrs guy, a married mother-of-one from george street, barry, began working at sewell's janitorial supply business in the mid 90s when she was 25 years old.. soon after, sewell began making inappropriate comments to her before advancing to trying to get her alone and make her sit on his lap saying: "give uncle mark a kiss" - disturbingly similar behaviour to that used in grooming his 12-year-old niece karen several years before.. mrs guy said that at the time she had only been in one relationship and was "naive".

  she didn't know how seriously to take the boss who seemed funny and playful, at first.. also, she said, knowing that he was a member of the jehovah's witness church she assumed he must be a "good person".. knowing now what sewell - described in court as a "predator" who used his power to exploit and abuse women and girls - was capable of, one incident sends shivers up her spine.. she described how one day sewell had approached her red-faced and furious while she was talking with another male employee and demanded she join him on a trip to a bank in barry town centre.. he drove her to town and left her in the car while he went to the bank, something that immediately put mrs guy on edge.. on what should have been the return trip, sewell took an unusual route before driving onto barren wasteland near barry docks.
