Kenya cult deaths: Four die after suspected starvation plot

Kenyan police are investigating the deaths of four people suspected to have starved to death on the orders of the leader of a controversial cult.
Pastor Makenzie Nthenge is alleged to have told his followers in the coastal area of Kilifi to starve themselves in the hope of getting to heaven quickly.
Following a tip-off, police found 15 seriously ill people on Thursday, but only 11 made it to hospital alive.
Police are also looking into reports of a mass grave in a nearby forest.

Last month Mr Nthenge was charged in connection with the deaths of two children whose parents had joined his Good News International Church.
He pleaded not guilty and was released on bail. The current whereabouts of the pastor are not clear.

Kenya is a religious country and this is not the first time people have been lured into joining dangerous, unregulated churches or cults.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups
