Clashes over Bangladesh protest leave 27 dead

At least 27 people have been killed and dozens hurt after police and Islamist protesters clashed in Bangladesh.

Police used stun grenades and rubber bullets to disperse a Sunday protest organised by the group Hefazat-e Islam in the capital Dhaka.

But there were later running battles throughout Sunday and into Monday in areas across the city.


Actually, it's a lot more than that now - more like 40+ people at last count.

Hefazat-e-Islam seem a very nasty bunch indeed. This is the group of people that want to see secularists and atheists hanged amid a number of brutal slayings of atheists in the country in recent months.

Glad to see the British SWP doing the right thing for secularism and free-thought though and, er, supporting the fundamentalist Islamic fascists. Again. Shouldn't be too surprised though, given the SWP's other links with prominent Islamists in London.
