May 07 2009 at 06:01PM



Bujumbura - Attackers in Burundi hurled a grenade into a home on Thursday overnight, killing four members of a family and wounding five others, an official said.

"on Wednesday night, an entire family was gathered in its living room when someone hurled a grenade through the window... It exploded, killing four on the spot and seriously wounding five others," said Maximilien Ngendakuriyo, a senior official in Nyabiraba town.

Nyabiraba is located some 20 kilometres south-east of the capital Bujumbura.

"Preliminary findings in the investigation point to a land dispute," the official said, adding that one suspect was detained early on Thursday.

A mother and her three children were killed in a similar attack further to the south of Bujumbura late in April.
