[News24] Police have confirmed on Wednesday morning that a man was arrested after a suspected homemade explosive device was found at a mosque in Roshnee, Vereening.
Police spokesperson Captain Fikile Funda said that a 36-year-old man, who was not known in the community, attended a prayer service at the Masjid Taqwa mosque in Gauteng on Monday.
