2 writers, publisher stabbed in attack in Bangladesh capital

 Police say two writers and a publisher have been stabbed in an attack at a publishing house in Bangladesh's capital.

 

Saturday's attack in Dhaka comes amid fears about the rise of radical Islam in Bangladesh. At least four atheist bloggers have been murdered in the impoverished country this year. Police officer Abdullah Al Mamun said three attackers entered the publishing house's office and stabbed the writers and the publisher. All three were hospitalized, but no details were immediately available on their conditions.
