Kilifi cult leader Paul Mackenzie used armed gangs with blunt objects to kill some of his followers who took too long to die and those who changed their minds during the fasting process, Interior minister said on Friday.
Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki told the Senate ad hoc committee on the proliferation of religious organisations that the armed gangs built structures next to the burial sites where they had a menu of well-balanced diets while they watched over followers starving to death.
