Kenyan court freed gang leader on Tuesday sect Christian charged with incitement death by starvation at least 110 believers, but the scandalous pastor was again arrested on charges of terrorism in relation to the matter.
Paul Mackenzie Ntenge and six accomplices stood trial in the coastal and tourist town of Malindi (south), where prosecutors wanted to indict suspects on terrorism charges.
However, the court pleaded not competent to try the Ntenge for terrorism and released them.
“The suspects have Liberty leave if they are not detained again, ”Judge Ivy Wasike said.The pastor and his henchmen were arrested minutes later and taken to court in the also coastal city of Mombasa, about 120 kilometers away, where they are expected to face charges of terrorism and radicalization.
The appearance comes after authorities said today that the first autopsies of suspected cult members exhumed in a forested area in southern Kenya show signs of hunger after a pastor allegedly coaxed them into fasting to be like this with Jesus Christ.
The bodies also show signs suffocation in the case of two minors.
This Monday, Kenyan Interior Minister Kiture Kindiki announced the suspension until further notice due to heavy rains of excavations that have so far unearthed 110 bodies, most of them exhumed in Shakahol Forest, where authorities began the operation on April 21 after receiving a warning.

The Minister assured that an autopsy would determine whether any organs had been harvested from victims of human trafficking, and reaffirmed Kenya’s President William Ruto’s pledge to create “commission of inquiryfind out how all the deaths happened and find those responsible.
The President had already condemned the so-called “Shakahol massacre” on April 24 as an act of “terrorism” and assured that Kenya would not tolerate “people preaching misleading sermons that lead to death.”
Ntenge, who has been in police custody since April 14, leads the Good News International Church.
An ecstasy driver, the pastor had already been arrested in March last year on charges of involvement in the death of two children under similar circumstances, but was released on bail.
