Paseka Mboro is seen threatening people he held hostage with cutlasses.

In a video that has gone viral on social media, the South African-based pastor is seen fuming at some people whom he held behind bars in a building believed to be his.

Among the people held was a little girl, whom the public said had been traumatised by the sad event.

The reason behind Pastor Mboro’s attack is unknown but he was undoubtedly angered.

The pastor also had a huge man by his side, who was with a gun.

South Africans who have seen the video expressed their anger at the pastor’s behaviour.

“He will get arrested and his congregants will be outside the court every court blaming satan and people who are trying to destroy him,” a user wrote.

“The videos are confusing! Is he holding them hostage or freeing them? Which is which?” another sought clarity.

“Mboro is crazy. That gun looks like an AK 47. Is it lawful to use such guns in South Africa?”
