Self-proclaimed pastor Paul Mackenzie and ninety four other suspects pleaded not guilty to charges of radicalisation.
According to documents from the Mombasa court, the cult leader was also charged with organised criminal activity.
Mackenzie is alleged to have incited his acolytes to starve to death in order to meet Jesus in a case that provoked horror across the world.
He was arrested last April after bodies were discovered in the Shakahola forest near the Indian Ocean.
Autopsies revealed that the majority of the four hundred and twenty nine victims had died of hunger.
Mackenzie’s pre-trial detention in the coastal city of Mombasa was extended on several occasions as the prosecution asked for more time to probe the case.
But last week, a court warned the authorities that it would release the former taxi driver unless charges were filed within 14 days.
