New cult mass grave found

Ugandan police said yesterday they had found what they suspect could be another mass grave used by leaders of the Ugandan Doomsday cult believed to have murdered around 900 of their followers.

Police spokesman Eric Naigambi told media the police had cordoned off a house rented by cult leader "Father" Dominic Kateribabo in a suburb of the capital Kampala, after locals noticed a strong smell coming from the ground. Naigambi said that police had not yet begun digging.
