Six children aged between one and nine died on Tuesday during a baptism ceremony conducted by a self proclaimed prophetess.
The incident happened in Wedza and the 30 year old woman is from the Johanne Masowe church.
Two of the dead kids are her children and four are cousins.
According to a state radio report, the children died after being repeatedly immersed in water. Each time the children came out of the water they where shivering.
The report said the prophetess said the children had evil spirits and started praying for them.
After realising that the children had died she fled the scene but was arrested.
