- Walter Masocha attended Alloa Sheriff court in Scotland yesterday on 30 December 2014 and pleaded not guilty to several charges of sexual assault on women and teenage girls
- Charges include being massaged naked by girls as young as 12
- Alloa Court could only accommodate 5 days of the trial as it is a smaller Court
- Crown Prosecution asked for 8 days as their evidence is too much to give in 5 days
- Trial was then transferred to Falkirk Sherrif Court which handles bigger cases
- Walter Masocha trial is therefore beginning in April 2015
I stood at Falkirk Police Station after Walter Masocha was arrested in February 2014 spending 4 days behind bars. I had this photograph taken as a reminder that the journey of justice is often long and difficult but in the end justice always prevails.
Dear readers, I know the whole world was waiting for this moment, the Walter Masocha Trial. It was set to begin in January at Alloa Sherrif Court, however as Prophet Masocha pleaded innocent to all the charges against him, it meant the Crown Prosecution was now set to begin giving their evidence. Alloa being a smaller Court could only accommodate 5 days for the Masocha Trial. That meant the Prosecution had 5 days to give their evidence. The prosecution could not possibly present their case against Walter Masocha in 5 days and requested 8 days. As a result the case was transferred to Falkirk Sheriff Court, a court that accommodates bigger Trials and cases. Falkirk is also where Dr Masocha was arrested in February 2014 and spent 4 days behind custody. The case is therefore too big to be handled in Alloa. It all began in Falkirk, and in April it shall all end in Falkirk.
Please continue to pray for the victims as the three months wait will not be easy, this trail will bring a closure to this very horrifying ordeal, and allow victims to move on with their lives. Thank you to everyone who sent me messages of prayers and support. I treasure each message of support during this difficult time.
