RMG End Time Message church leader Robert Martin Gumbura, who was convicted on four counts of rape and one count of possession of pornographic material on Friday, was on Monday sentenced to 50 years in prison.

Of these, 10 years were suspended on condition of good behaviour. This leaves him with an effective 40 year jail term.

AMH Multimedia Producer Cynthia R Matonhodze captured the emotions on the faces of some of Gumbura’s 11 wives as they exited the Harare Magistrates’ Court arena after their husband’s sentencing.
