Four members of a family,

including two children, were charred to death after a fire broke out in their hut in Gadhepur village in Kasganj, police said today.

Two women -- Basanti (30) and Gauri (26) -- and children Pyare (3) and Gudiya (2) were killed in the fire that broke out last night while they were asleep, they said.

While Gauri's husband Jamahil has accused his cousin of setting the house on fire due to enmity, police suspect the fire got started from a kerosene lamp.
