Firefighters have managed to extinguish the blaze at the Incredible Happenings church in Ekurhuleni’s Katlehong township.
It’s understood a group of pupils set the church of pastor Paseka Mboro Motsoeneng alight on Tuesday afternoon.
This follows the arrests of at least four people for threatening teachers and wielding a machete at a school on Monday.
On Monday, pastor Motsoeneng was caught on video forcefully removing his grandchildren after their father was denied permission to take them home from the Matshidiso Primary School.
It’s understood the children are caught in a dispute between their maternal and paternal families following the death of their mother.
