The gruesome saga, which has been dubbed the"Shakahola Forest Massacre", has prompted calls for a crackdown on fringe religious outfits in the largely Christian country. Mwiti said he had heard this from a former cult member who had been expelled for drinking water during the mass fast. Mwiti said he had raised the alarm with police, but felt that he had been ignored. A spokeswoman for the police said she would respond to a request for comment later.
