Police in eastern Kenya found 26 more bodies of people suspected to have starved themselves to death. That brings the total known toll of the Good News International Church cult to 47. A number of bodies had already been wrapped in white plastic sheeting. "Today we have exhumed 26 more bodies and this brings the total number of bodies from that place to 47," said the head of criminal investigations in Malindi, eastern Kenya, Charles Kamau. He said the search was continuing not just for bodies but for survivors of the cult.
