The authorities in Ethiopia have repatriated 80 people from Uganda, who are suspected of belonging to a doomsday cult.
Members of the Christ Disciples Church were allegedly told to sell their property, make a pilgrimage to Ethiopia and starve themselves to death in order to meet Jesus.
Police said they were hunting for the leader of the cult, Simon Opolot.
In Kenya, more than 250 bodies of suspected cult members have been discovered in a remote forest. Paul Mackenzie allegedly convinced his followers to kill themselves by starvation.
