A pastor in Kenya has been arrested over links to cultism, and dozens of bodies are still being discovered on his land.
Malindi sub-county police chief John Kemboi said that more shallow graves have yet to be dug up on the land belonging to pastor Paul Makenzi, who was arrested on April 14 over links to cultism.
The total death toll is 43, because a further four people died after they and others were discovered starving at the Good News International Church last week. Police have asked a court to allow them to hold Makenzi longer as investigations into the deaths of his followers continue. Security personnel carry a rescued young person from the forest in Shakahola, outside the coastal town of Malindi, on April 23, 2023.
