Police have confirmed that a case of common assault has been opened against Prophet Paseka Motsoeneng also known as Pastor Mboro.
He allegedly assaulted a female paramedic while she and a crew from the Ekurhuleni Emergency services were attending to a sickly child at Mboro’s Incredible Happenings Ministries in Katlehong, east of Johannesburg, on Sunday.
The child died.
