NAIROBI, Kenya: An inquiry into a suspected cult leader accused of inciting at least 428 of his followers to starve themselves to death, has pointed to 'failures' in Kenya's security and criminal justice systems, according to a report seen by Agence France-Presse (AFP) on Saturday.

Self-proclaimed pastor Paul Nthenge Mackenzie has been in police custody since mid-April after the discovery of human remains in the Shakahola forest near the Indian Ocean coast.
