Cult leader Dyers 'now a martyr' July 30, 2007,
Australian cult leader Ken Dyers committed suicide last week but the controversy around him and his Kenja group has not died with him.
He had been due to face court in May on 22 charges relating to the sexual assault of two girls but was deemed unfit for trial.
It has now emerged that last Wednesday, Dyers' lawyer rang him to say the police wanted to interview him about further allegations of sexual abuse from a girl who attended his "energy conversion" sessions.
The next day, the 84-year-old ended his own life.
