A lady rescued from Shakahola Forest is now requesting to be returned back to Shakahola despite the current tension and the raising number of bodies retrieved.
The dehydrated-looking woman who was speaking from the hospital said she has been still fasting in the hospital. She continued to say that fasting is a thing she is used to and that is the reason she wants to go back to Shakahola.
While asked about her plans to fast, she said she directly communicates with Jesus who instructs her on the number of days she is supposed to do the fasting. She adds that Jesus gives her strength.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, DPP Haji expressed astonishment and dismay at what he termed as atrocious acts done by pastor Mackenzie and his cult in Malindi's Shakahola village, Kilifi County.
The DPP's comments come a day after touring Mackenzie's 800-acre property, where 17 remains have subsequently been exhumed, and vowed to prosecute the notorious pastor and his co-accused to the full extent.
The violation of the Penal Code, Prevention of Terrorism Act, International Crimes Act, and the Proceeds of Crime and Anti-Money Laundering Act, among other laws, have been identified by the ODPP. Investigators have been directed to identify the assets of the suspects to be preserved, confiscated, and forfeited under the law.
This action has been prompted by the death toll of the Shakahola tragedy, which has risen to 90 as 17 more victims were discovered buried in shallow graves across the vast area.
In the course of the operation, a multi-agency team rescued three individuals and apprehended two additional suspects for their roles in enticing Mackenzi's followers to starvation.
