The Equality Court is set to hear the case of a transgender Mpumalanga woman who was assaulted and discriminated against after she was “outed” by members of her church. The woman, named only as Ndlovu, was a member of the International Pentecost Holiness Church from 2013.

She chose to not disclose her gender identity but in August 2015 a church member who suspected or perceived that Ndlovu was transgender informed others in the church.
