Kenya - Sebuah aliran sesat di Kenya membuat geger. Sebanyak 21 mayat pengikutnya ditemukan mati akibat kelaparan dan terkubur di hutan.

Forensic experts and homicide detectives carry the bodies of suspected members of a Christian cult named as Good News International Church, who believed they would go to heaven if they starved themselves to death, after their remains were exhumed from their graves in Shakahola forest of Kilifi county, Kenya, April 22, 2023.

Dilansir AFP, Minggu (23/4/2023), penemuan puluhan mayat itu bermula saat polisi menyelidiki kematian 7 orang di Kenya Timur. Seorang pendeta bernama Makenzie Nthenge kemudian ditangkap. Nthenge dilaporkan menyuruh para pengikutnya untuk membuat diri mereka sendiri kelaparan untuk "bertemu Yesus".

Menurut media lokal, Nthenge, pemimpin Gereja Kabar Baik Internasional, menyerahkan diri ke polisi dan didakwa bulan lalu, setelah dua anak mati kelaparan dalam tahanan orang tua mereka. Dia awalnya dibebaskan dengan jaminan 100.000 shilling Kenya ($700). Tetapi polisi menangkap Nthenge pada 15 April setelah menemukan mayat empat pengikutnya yang menurut laporan dia disuruh kelaparan untuk "bertemu Yesus".
