JUST IN: Shakahola Massacre Trial Postponed to March 2025 Due to Prosecutor Shortage
The manslaughter trial of suspected Shakahola cult leader Paul Mackenzie and his 94 accomplices has been postponed until March 2025 due to a shortage of prosecutors. The case, originally scheduled for three days this week, was adjourned by a Mombasa Chief Magistrate’s Court on Monday after the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) requested more time to address the issue. Prosecutor Victor Simbi told the court that the team of seven prosecutors handling the case was unavailable due to transfers and other administrative matters. He informed the court, “I am the only prosecutor available for the entire week.”
