DHAKA - A Hindu priest was hacked to death on Friday at a temple in Bangladesh, police and senior administrative officials said.
Bangladesh, a Muslim-majority nation of 160 million people, has seen a surge in violent attacks in few months on liberal activists, members of minority Muslim sects and other religious groups by Islamist extremists.
