Inquiry seeks justice for Kenya death cult victims
Kenya’s president has appointed a commission of inquiry into the deaths of more than 100 people who were members of a cult.
They are thought to have starved themselves to death on the advice of the head of the Good News International Church, Paul Nthenge Mackenzie.
He is expected to face terrorism charges but has not yet entered a plea.
Earlier this the cult leader was arrested in connection with the deaths of two children but was released on bail.
A government official said the commission of inquiry will examine whether administrative or intelligence lapses contributed to the deaths.
The president has also appointed a task force to review regulations governing religious organisations.
