Indian
police shot dead four men on Friday who were suspected of raping and killing a 27-year-old veterinarian in the city of Hyderabad, a police official told Reuters, drawing applause from her family and citizens outraged over crimes against women.
The men had been in police custody and were shot near the scene of last week's crime, said N Prakash Reddy, a deputy commissioner of police in Shamshabad, near Hyderabad.
Earlier a local police official had put the time of the deaths at around 3:30 a.m. (2200 GMT Thursday).
