A cult leader who allegedly told his followers to starve themselves to prepare for the end of the world has been charged with murder after mass graves filled with 429 dead bodies were found in a Kenyan forest.
Kenya's director of public prosecutions said on Tuesday that Paul Mackenzie, along with more than 90 others, will be charged with murder, manslaughter, radicalization, cruelty and child torture, among other crimes, after the bodies were dug up last April.
The more than 400 bodies, which include children, have been dug up from dozens of mass graves in the remote Shakahola forest, in southeast Kenya.
