HYDERABAD, India - Officials in southern India say six members of a Muslim family have burned to death after rioters set their home on fire.
The deadly attack occurred in a village where clashes between Hindus and Muslims left four others dead and 15 injured on Friday.
Authorities had imposed a curfew after Friday's violence, but were unable to stop the deadly arson attack, which apparently occurred before dawn Sunday.
Authorities say three children, including a 2-year-old, were among the six who burned to death.
