The Springbok Magistrate's Court has dismissed the bail application of a woman accused of sexual assault and sexual exploitation of children. 

Northern Cape National Prosecuting Authority spokesperson Mojalefa Senokoatsane said the 43-year-old woman allegedly abused several children during "Bible studies and spiritual guidance" at her home in Vioolsdrift. 

"The parents allowed their children between the ages of 8 and 16 to visit the woman as they were under the impression that their children were receiving Bible lessons," said Senokoatsane.
