The Movement for the Restoration of the Ten Commandment of God was a religious cult in Uganda.
On March 17, 2000, hundreds of members of the doomsday cult were locked up in a makeshift church and set ablaze. What initially seemed like a mass suicide turned out to be premeditated killings that shocked the world. A total of 530 bodies were counted after the inferno.
Uganda authorities said that leaders of this doomsday cult appeared to have systematically killed other cult members for months before the fire.
