In the ongoing Shakahola trial, a father, Antony Wyclif Muhoro, has refused to accept DNA evidence linking him to the remains of a child exhumed from Shakahola, maintaining that his four missing children are still alive.

• Muhoro testified in Mombasa High Court that he still believes his four children are alive, despite a 99.99 percent DNA match to a seven-year-old girl's remains.
• The Office of the Directorate of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) confirmed the DNA analysis, which linked Muhoro and his wife, Millicent Oyayi Awuor, to the child.
• Muhoro's wife, currently in Shimo La Tewa Prison, reportedly told him their children are safe, having relocated to Malindi with followers of Pastor Paul Mackenzie to escape perceived election-related violence.
• Investigations, including DNA testing, were initiated after Muhoro reported his family missing and learned of Pastor Mackenzie's arrest in March 2023.
• Pastor Paul Mackenzie and 29 co-accused face charges in connection with the deaths of 191 people.
