Strange incidents as Apostolic sects fight over shrine

A FIGHT over a shrine at a bush near Khami Prison by three Apostolic sects has got out of hand.

At some point they agreed on a a�?first-come-first usea�? basis but still disgruntlements emanated and one sect gave up.

With two remaining, the fights continued but now there are strange happenings at the site.

Therea��s talk of deadly snakes and a mysterious orange tree appearing and disappearing once a certain sect attempts to use the shrine.

a�?A lot of scary incidents happen at that shrine,a�? said a member of one sect.

The sect tried to neutralise the a�?spiritsa�? before worship.

a�?These incidents were shocking but we just ignored them and sprinkled holy water,a�? he said.

The Apostolic sect source told of horrific developments.

a�?One weekend when we were busy with the service, I got the shock of my life when we noticed that a wild tree nearby suddenly had flowers.

a�?When we moved closer we realised they were oranges. As we got closer to the tree a snake appeared. Thata��s when we ran away and since then we have never used the shrine,a�? he added.

When the B-Metro visited the place everything appeared normal with no sign of human activity.

Therea��s now a common belief that the shrine is being used by someone to keep his snake, fruits and meat for feeding it.
