Fugitive and self-proclaimed prophet, Shepherd Bushiri’s family were allegedly stopped from leaving Malawi for Kenya at Kamuzu International Airport (KIA)
iHarare has established from eNCA that Prophet Bushiri’s two daughters, Raphaella and Israella together with his mother-in-law, Magdalena Zgambo, and another family member, Esther Bushiri were turned away at Kamuzu International airport by Malawi authorities on their way to Kenya.
The police in Malawi are said to have barred the fugitives’ family members from boarding a private jet the Bushiri family had chartered en route to Kenya.
According to one of Bushiri’s lawyers, one of his daughters requires urgent medical attention in Kenya, hence the reason for the trip.

Bushiri and his wife pulled one of the greatest escapes from South Africa to Malawi a few days after they were granted bail with a hefty bail of R200k. The Bushiri’s forfeited their bail amount of R400k including their mansion in centurion after they violated their bail condition which prevented them from leaving the country.
Fugitive prophet Shepherd Bushiri’s daughters were the first to leave South Africa before the prophet and his alleged partner-in-crime, wife Mary Bushiri, escaped to Malawi last year in November.
They are facing charges of theft, money laundering, and fraud in connection with an alleged R100 million investment scheme.
Meanwhile, South Africa has since filed extradition papers to try and get the fugitive couple back to South Africa to stand trial for their fraud case.
