Witnesses testified in a Mombasa court about the Shakahola land used to bury cult victims, as concerns emerge over a possible regrouping of the cult members. A farmer recounted his encounters with suspected cult leader Paul Mackenzie, dating back to 2020 when Mackenzie and his followers were clearing land that was not theirs.

• Andrew Charo Baya, a 54-year-old Shakahola farmer, was the 40th prosecution witness, detailing events from July 9, 2020.
• Michael Mwaria, a land surveyor from the Ministry of Lands in Nairobi, provided GPS coordinates and mapped structures, water pans, and grave sites at Shakahola.
• Reports indicate six children who survived the initial 2023 Shakahola incident have since died in Kilifi, reportedly buried in Kwa Binzaro village, within Chakama Ranch.
• Human rights activists, including Mathias Shipeta, Rapid Response Officer at Haki Africa, are calling for control over phone use by imprisoned suspects, alleging Mackenzie is still preaching fasting via mobile devices.
