图基 (写作thuggee或tuggee,注意不念萨基)(印地语:ठग्गी ṭhagī; 乌尔都语:ٹھگ; 梵文:sthaga; 信德语: ٺوڳي، ٺڳ; Template:Lang-kan)指的是印度近代以前的一个地下暗杀教派,常以宗教的理由劫杀路人并抢走财物,他们杀人的方式是用手巾勒脖,从不用见血的方式,只是之后会把尸体破坏再遗弃以加速腐败,这和他们版本的神话有关:女神斗败了恶魔后恶魔的每一滴血都变成了新的恶魔,于是女神造出两个人类,给他们两条白巾让他们用不见血的方式处决恶魔。该教派最终在英殖民政府的打击下消亡。英语中的thug一词源于此。

Thuggee or tuggee (Hindi:Nepali ठग्गी ṭhagī; Urdu:ٹھگ; Sanskrit:sthaga; Sindhi: ٺوڳي، ٺڳ; Kannada:ಠಕ್ಕ thakka) refers to the acts of Thugs, an organised gang of professional robbers and murderers. Thugs travelled in groups across South Asia for six hundred years. Although the Thugs traced their origin to seven Muslim tribes, Hindus appear to have been associated with them at an early period. They were first mentioned in Ẓiyā-ud-Dīn Baranī's History of Fīrūz Shāh, dated around 1356. During the 1830s, the Thugs were targeted for eradication by Governor-General of India, William Bentinck and his chief captain, William Henry Sleeman. Thugs were apparently destroyed by this effort.
