The Movement for the Restoration of the Ten Commandments of God was a breakaway cult from the Roman Catholic Church founded by Credonia Mwerinde and Joseph Kibweteere and Bee Tait in Uganda. It formed in the late 1980s after Mwerinde, a brewer of banana beer, and Kibweteere, a politician, claimed that they had visions of the Virgin Mary. The five primary leaders were Joseph Kibweteere, Joseph Kasapurari, John Kamagara, Dominic Kataribabo, and Credonia Mwerinde. In early 2000, followers of the sect perished in a devastating fire, and a series of poisonings and killings, that were either a cult suicide, or an orchestrated mass murder by sect leaders after their predictions of the apocalypse failed to pass. In their coverage of that event, BBC News and the New York Times referred to the Movement as a Doomsday cult.
