Pastor Mboro to challenge decision to deny him bail

JOHANNESBURG - Pastor Paseko "Mboro" Motsoeneng is back in court challenging the decision to deny him bail.

The self-proclaimed prophet was arrested after a viral video showed him, his son and bodyguard brandishing weapons at teachers and community members at a Katlehong primary school, southeast of Johannesburg.

He is alleging victimisation and prejudice in police custody.
