4 die After Fasting To Death With the Hope Of Going To Heaven To Meet Jesus

Police are looking into the deaths of four people who may have been starved to death at the order of a controversial cult leader in Kenya.

According to reports, Pastor Makenzie Nthenge advised his followers in Kilifi’s coastal region to starve themselves in order to enter heaven more swiftly.

Police discovered 15 extremely ill patients on Thursday as a result of a tip, but only 11 made it to the hospital.

Additionally, police are investigating rumors of a mass grave in a neighboring woodland.

In connection with the deaths of two kids whose parents belonged to his Good News International Church, Mr. Nthenge was prosecuted last month.

He entered a not-guilty plea and was granted bail. The pastor’s whereabouts as of right now are unknown.

A teenager is among the survivors who have gotten so malnourished that they are currently in a severe condition.

Those who were evacuated from their homes were in a very bad situation when they were located, a security source told Kenya’s Nation Media group. “We found them in a very bad state, others fainted on the way to hospital.”

Police claimed they started looking for GNIC members after learning that “ignorant citizens” were “starving to death in pretext to meet Jesus after being brainwashed by a suspect,”

The police statement stated that they were also notified about “a mass shallow grave of those brainwashing victims totaling to 31 bodies in an unidentified place at Shakahola Forest.”
