A church pastor who sexually assaulted a female churchgoer under the pretence of "removing demons" from her body has been jailed for 10 years.

Walter Masocha, 61, groped the married woman at his home in Stirling, claiming he was a "gift from god".

The University of Stirling professor also attempted to rape another woman during a campaign of abuse from 2006 to 2012.

Masocha denied the attacks during the trial at the High Court in Livingston, but judge Susan Craig described his offending as "appalling".

She imposed a non-harassment orders banning him from approaching or contacting his two victims.

Masocha founded his own church in Scotland in 2007 soon after moving from Zimbabwe.
