Police investigating the death of hundreds of cult followers in Uganda found what they feared was another mass grave yesterday.

They stopped digging when they uncovered the arm of a corpse behind the house of prominent cult leader Father Dominic Kataribabo, and said they were waiting for a medical and investigative team to arrive before going any further.

On Friday, police found 153 bodies under a building used by the cult in Buhunga in south-west Uganda. Both finds were under 80 km from Kanungu, where some 500 members of the Movement for the Restoration of the Ten Commandments of God died when their church burned down on March 17th.

Meanwhile, a handwritten register of members of the sect was reproduced in the Ugandan state-owned Sunday Vision newspaper yesterday. Most of the names are of Ugandans, although there are also some Rwandan names.
