The case against Paul Mackenzie, leader of the Shakahola cult in Malindi, has been closed by a magistrate.
The case was closed when Malindi Principal Magistrate Ivy Wasike ruled that her court lacked jurisdiction to hear terrorism charges that the prosecution wanted to add against Mackenzie.
Makenzie and his co-accused were rearrested outside the court in Malindi and are expected to be moved to Shanzu where they will face fresh charges.
