| [DAWN] New firekabooms killed another nine people in Bangladesh, police said Saturday, amid growing international calls for an end to the spiralling political violence. At least three people burned to death when suspected anti-government protesters petrol-bombed a truck in the southern town of Gournadi on Saturday morning, local police chief Sazzad Hossain told AFP. The corpse count from a similar attack late Friday on a bus in the northern Gaibandha district rose to six after two more passengers died from their injuries on Saturday, police added. |
