According to the Guinness Book of World Records, Behram, a Tuki mob in The Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, holds the record for the most prolific murderer. As the leader of a Tuki sect in the Indian region of Ud (present-day Uttar Pradesh), he strangled at least 931 victims in the half-century from 1790 to 1840. After berham was arrested, he was executed in Jabalpur in 1840 along with his family, which was a family of murderers.
It is estimated that this killing record is difficult to break.
So, what kind of demon is the Tuki Sect?

The word "tuji" is derived from the Sanskrit word for "secret concealment", (written thuggee or tugee, not pronounced saki) (Hindi: ठग्गीṭhagī; Urdu: ٹھگ; Sanskrit: sthaga), originally referred to the belief in the goddess Kali (the wife of Shiva, the Hindu god of destruction, who is a goddess of both destructiveness and creativity).
The teachings of the Tuji sect are very clear, and every word is imbued with evil: they regard robbery and murder as a basic religious obligation, and killing innocent people is done according to the will of the goddess Kali.
What does that mean? That is to say, because human life is constantly alternating between destruction and birth, their Tuki sect only carries out part of the destruction, helping the goddess Kali to exercise destructive power, representing evil with herself, thus maintaining the balance of the world.
In other words: because there must be someone else practicing creativity, then the Tuji sect is responsible for destructive power, helping the goddess Kali to maintain the balance of good and evil in the world, so that the world can be harmonious...
Any normal human being can conclude that this sect is undoubtedly a cult.

The earliest mention of the "Tuki" school in history was in an Indian history book in 1356. Although the Tuji sect originated as seven northern Indian Muslim tribes, Hindu believers joined the sect early in its founding. The worship of the goddess of destruction and revival has since become the basic doctrine of the Tuji sect, while the rest of their Hindu faith is not much different from other Hindus of the same generation, and some of the Tukis are of Muslim origin, which complicates the problem, making them easier to hide in the crowd and extremely difficult for ordinary people to find.
The spread of the Tuki sect is carried out in secret, passed down only among fixed castes and families. According to their teachings, everyone should hide themselves and travel in groups of 10 to 200 people, disguised as different identities.
They mainly targeted caravans from all over the world.
If they encounter a regular caravan, they ask to join and show kindness, and the Tukis will spend at least weeks or even months gaining your trust. They then followed the caravan as a member of the caravan, followed by the others in secret, and would eventually be in a remote wilderness, usually at night, where the Tuki sect's men should join forces, kill all the people in the caravan, and bury the bodies.
They kill people by using towels and nooses to strangle people's necks, never seeing blood, and then destroying the corpses and discarding them to accelerate corruption. The reason for this is related to their goddess myth: after the goddess Kali defeated the demon, every drop of the demon's blood became a new demon, so the goddess created two humans and gave them two white scarves to execute the demon in a bloodless way.

After doing these things, they would collectively perform a devotional ritual to tell the goddess Of Kali that they had completed the task of destruction, and then the loot was completed, and some of the treasures would be thrown in place as sacrifices.

The actions of the Tuki sect, from the initial stage of secret infiltration to the final moment of attack and murder, require a high degree of teamwork and coordination. Each member of the gang is responsible for a particular aspect of work, from seducing travelers with charming words, to acting as a watchman, or playing the role of a killer.
Later historians estimate that at least 2 million people died at their hands in the three or four hundred years that this evil sect began to operate in a big way. In every sacrifice of the Tuki sect, no one survived. Coupled with the fact that the Tuki sects acted in secrecy and rapidly, basically leaving no physical residue of the victims, the governments across India did not know what was going on, so they were hardly punished.
At the same time, because they act in secrecy, there is no reliable source that can determine when their murderous evil deeds began, and how many times they have been carried out, so the figure of more than 2 million is only an estimate, and I am afraid it will never be clear.
According to later English research, all members of the Tuki sect shared a common set of superstitious rituals that they used as a sign of sectarian unity. Members of the sect have their own jargon, black language, known as "ramasi," and carry certain symbols that allow its members to identify each other in the most remote parts of India.

The Tuki sect is also bound by a series of rules within it, such as:
It is forbidden to steal a person's property without first killing him according to the ritual.
Brahmins cannot be killed - because of their purity.
The sick were considered unworthy of the goddess sacrifice, so they were not allowed to be killed.
Women were not killed because they were believed to be the incarnations of the goddess Gali.
Members of the Tuki sect are usually hereditary, passed from father to son. There are also those who need to be trained at the master, similar to apprentices, and the Tukis allied with each other and cooperated with each other. Sometimes, the children of the slain travelers are also adopted and slowly raised to become Tukiists, because the presence of children helps to dispel the suspicions of others.
The Tukis ran rampant in India for hundreds of years, and finally in the 1830s, after the British ruled India, the "comfortable" days of the Tuki sect came to an end, because they had dropped the butcher's knife on the heads of British merchants this time.

The British had no scruples about acting in India, but someone actually used a knife on their head, which annoyed the British colonists.
At first, the British couldn't figure out what was going on, and the Tukis were acting in secrecy.
After several failed arrests, it was 1833–1835 that the British governor in India, William Wilbur, was killed. During the reign of Lord Bentink (the Governor-General's most famous act was to demolish the Taj Mahal with the intention of buying the demolished marble to London), he was furious enough to enact the Tuki and Dakod Suppression Act, which ultimately suppressed the Tuki Sect.
The Decree provides: "It is hereby promulgated that, before or after the adoption of this Act, anyone who is certified to belong to any Tuki group inside or outside the territory of the East India Company shall be sentenced to life imprisonment and hard labour." ”
In order to implement this decree, Lord Bentink implemented a series of strategies, including rewarding Tuki members for denouncing their companions, as well as widely disseminating information about Tukiism, in order to educate and warn travellers and ordinary people to be vigilant and report in a timely manner. He also mobilized professional patrol detectives from Britain, using informants to cooperate with each other and successfully cracked a number of Tuki cult sacrifices.
The Tuki sect captured by the British
From 1831 to 1837, more than 3,000 people of the Tuki sect were arrested, of whom 412 were hanged, 483 were sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment for meritorious service, and the rest were thrown into cells until death.
During this time, the leader of the Tuki sect at the beginning, Beharm, was also captured. In his sinful 50 years of life, he personally killed 921 people. He is so powerful that he can often strangle a person in a minute, and the killing efficiency is extremely high
Under the severe suppression of the British, Tuchyism was finally basically eliminated around 1870, and after 1894, Tuchy was completely gone.
Traditional Chinese cults, such as the White Lotus Cult or something, are keen to build an ideal utopian world, the Zhao family song dynasty is anti-Song, the Mongolian Yuan is anti-Yuan, the Zhu Ming Dynasty period is anti-Ming, the Manchu Qing period is anti-Qing... Basically, it was directed at the rulers.
However, the Indian Tuji sect, a cult of pure evil, regarded the killing of people as a kind of sacrificial activity, and its murderous horror was rare in human history, simply the embodiment of evil, and their name Thuggee later evolved into the English word Thugs (thug), which was widely used to refer to aggressive and violent young criminals.
