    Bangla professor hacked to death by ISIS militants

    Excerpt from BBC News:

    "Police believe that he may have been targeted by
    suspected Islamist extremists because he was involved in
    cultural activities.

    "The BBC's Dhaka correspondent Akbar Hossain says hardline
    Islamist groups dislike anyone involved in the cultural
    field."

    I heard it was because he was too secular and never wrote anything about
    Islam.
