A Kenyan court on Tuesday charged cult leader Paul Nthenge Mackenzie and 29 other suspects for the murder of 191 children.
Authorities had dug out bodies of children from Shakahola forest in eastern Kenya last year, leaving the nation shocked.
Paul Nthenge Mackenzie and his associates were accused of running a cult in the region.
Authorities exhumed over 400 bodies from the sprawling forest after months of search efforts, reported CNN.
The cult leader and 29 others pleaded not guilty to the charges.
