Thousands of minority Shiite Muslims rampaged through an eastern Pakistan city for a second day today, setting fire to a police station and the mayor’s office, after a mass funeral for victims of a suicide bombing at a mosque that killed 31 people.

Rioters also burned a record room of a court in Sialkot and torched several motorcycles parked at the police station, until hundreds of army troops and police commandos managed to restore order. There were no immediate reports of injuries.
