A Kenyan cult leader is to be charged with murder and terrorism over the deaths of more than 400 people found in mass graves, prosecutors say.
Paul Mackenzie was arrested in April after the discovery of hundreds of bodies, some of whom were said to have starved themselves to death.
Kenyan prosecutors say that he and 94 others will be charged in court in Malindi on Wednesday.
The self-proclaimed pastor has denied responsibility for the deaths.
The bodies of 429 people, including children, have been dug up from grave sites in Shakahola, a remote forest about two hours’ drive west of Malindi.
