# The National Prosecuting Authority has welcomed the life imprisonment sentence handed down to a pastor from Jesus Is the Answer Ministries in Mamelodi East, Pretoria. The 41-year-old was convicted of raping a 12-year-old girl and sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl. NPA spokesperson Lumka Mahanjana says the presiding Magistrate, Lynn Pillay, agreed with the state that the pastor showed no remorse, and there were no substantial and compelling circumstances to deviate from imposing life imprisonment:
