Lima - Gunmen killed 22 members of a Peruvian family, including 15 children or babies, in a feud over land rights in a remote village in the central Andes, authorities said yesterday. The killers herded the family - including a one-year-old baby boy - into a house and then opened fire, shooting most of them through the head in one of the worst massacres in Peru for years, villagers said.
Police found the bodies of the Caqui family on Tuesday in the Huanuco region, a centre for drug traffickers where Marxist Shining Path rebels operate.
