South African police has arrested on Tim Omotoso, 58, the senior pastor of the Jesus Dominion International, an interdenominational ministry, based in Durban.

He was arrested on Thursday at Port Elizabeth airport shortly after his flight landed.

He was accused of luring young girls into his bedroom and molesting them.

According to South African Broadcasting Corporation 3 (SABC3)’s Special Assignment, Omotoso allegedly handpicked the girls (about 30 of them) and instructed them to live in his house where they were forced to have unprotected sex with him.
