Five people were arrested on Thursday in connection with the murder of a man in Zakariyya Park, south of Johannesburg, police said. 

Warrant Officer Kay Makhubela said police were responding to a tip-off that a man had been beaten to death in the area, near Lenasia.

“Police arrived at a Zakariyya Park church to find a body and five men in bloody clothes.

“We were told the man was assaulted and locked up in the boot of a vehicle after he allegedly stole some material from the church.” 

It was alleged the five men were members of the church.

“They will all face charges of murder when they appear in the Vereeniging Magistrate’s Court soon,” said Makhubela.

So called God's disciples, carrying on from Crusaders, Israelites, Catholics, Muslims and all walking oilslicks that are found hiding under the cloak of religion. Thats why I would never foloow any religion nor would I allow any of my children to go to the sham that is called the 'Church'. Now that is what religion is all about, murdering someone for thieving

What Church is this? Pastor Mporo or Zondi, Mokoena, ZCC, Rhema, Roma, Wesley or what? Name the Church and we must know it, we dont want to worship with people like that.

"after he allegedly stole some material from the church.”
what material? we all know they only keep two thing in most "churches"1. the offering or 2. the holy wine. had he stolen one of the two the thief would end up in hospital..now that he is gone "home", he probably stole both.
