An exhumation is ongoing at the land of cult leader Paul Mackenzie who is in police custody.
One woman was rescued in one of the hideouts in a bad health state, witnesses and police said.
Of the bodies recovered on Sunday, three were in one grave, two in one and one in a single grave.
The shallows grave diggers said they had also earmarked a grave with seven more people in the Sunday exercise.
Malindi police boss John Kemboi confirmed the new developments saying the operations are ongoing.
“We have more bodies and will talk more when done for today,” he said.
The preacher was arrested on April 15 and has been in police custody since the Malindi High Court denied him release on bond.
Meanwhile, police reported earlier on Saturday that Mr Mackenzie was on a hunger strike.
At the beginning of the exercise, the authorities had a total of 32 sites to dig up.
They had hoped to recover 32 bodies as per an informer who had tipped them, area police said.
Mackenzie has been in the limelight for allegedly influencing his followers too fast to death.
In one of the graves that had been dug up there were the bodies of five family members – a father, mother and their three children.
Most of them are not from the area.
Authorities carried out with the exhumations despite heavy rains, with police and locals dividing themselves into three groups to improve the pace.
Mackenzie, leader of the Good News International Church, appeared before Malindi Chief Magistrate Elizabeth Usui on Monday afternoon
He was not required to plead to any charge, with the prosecution seeking 30 more days to hold him as they complete the probe.
He was arraigned alongside 13 others people in the case that will be mentioned on May 2.
The ruling was for the cult leader to remain to be in police custody for 14 days alongside six of his followers as police probe the issue.
The other seven, whom the prosecution described as victims as they had refused to eat even while in police custody, will be held seven days for counselling, officials said.
