Kenyan Cult Leader Charged with Murdering 429 People

Kenya's top prosecutor has ordered 95 people from a doomsday cult to be charged with murder, cruelty, child torture, and other crimes in the deaths of 429 people believed to be members of the church. The cult leader, Pastor Paul Mackenzie, faces charges including manslaughter, radicalization, assault causing grievous bodily harm, and engaging in organized criminal activity after survivors revealed that he instructed them to fast to death before the world ends so they could meet Jesus. The case shocked Kenyans with the discovery of mass graves and allegations of starvation and strangulation, and the suspects will now face prosecution for their involvement in these tragic events.
