Death sentences after murder of professor Siddiquee

A court in Bangladesh sentenced two men to death for the murder of a professor just over two years ago.

The victim, Rezaul Karim Siddiquee (58), was professor of English at the university in the city of Rajshahi. He was slaughtered with knives when he was waiting at a bus stop. Islamic State demanded the murder later. The man was murdered because of his 'call to atheism'.
