Paul Makenzi didn't buy land from us, Chakama Ranch owners say

The Senate committee is investigating the deaths of Makenzi's followers in the 50,000 acres of land in Shakahola Forest, Malindi.

Earlier, there was controversy over the ownership of the land where Makenzi is believed to have buried his followers whom he instructed to fast to death.

The preacher, his wife, and 16 other co-accused are being investigated in connection with the deaths of over 240 people whose bodies were exhumed from Shakahola Forest after starving to death.

Pastor Makenzi is still in police custody.
