“We trusted him but it came to a point when his word was final. That’s when he started to take advantage of the locals,” Jackson added.

He said the cult has been in existence for a long time but people were afraid of disclosing it “to avoid arousing God’s anger.”

Detectives have been camping in Shakahola for the past week, searching for mass graves on the land belonging to Mackenzie.

At least 21 bodies have been exhumed, but the number is expected to rise as the exercise continues.

The detectives say the 14 days given by the court for the search of bodies is not enough given the number of graves expected to be exhumed. They are planning to plead with the court for more days to complete the exercise.
