The Kenyan government say they will release several bodies belonging to victims of the Shakahola starvation cult next week. | |
At least 34 bodies have been identified and linked to their families out of the hundreds that were exhumed last year. | |
The bodies of 429 people, including children, were dug up from graves in Shakahola, a remote forest outside of the coastal town Malindi. Most showed signs of starvation and assault. | |
Survivors and victims' families said self-proclaimed pastor Paul Mackenzie encouraged members of his Good News International Church to move there and prepare for the end of the world. | |
Survivors say he instructed them to fast so that they could "get to heaven". | |
The government will counsel victims' families but will not assist them to transport the bodies for burial said Chief Government Pathologist Dr Johansen Oduor on Wednesday. | |
Mr Mackenzie has denied responsibility for the deaths, but he and several of his followers are currently on trial for several charges, including terrorism, murder and torture. | |
New exhumations are scheduled to be done in one to two weeks, Dr Oduor said, adding that 35 more grave sites have been identified. | |
The planned fresh exhumations could drive up the death toll further. | |
Dr Oduor said the linking of bodies to their families has been slow because "people are not coming up to claim their loved ones". | |
