CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION - Bangladeshis behead pastor!

Religion Today/Compass Direct reports ...
Sources have confirmed the murder by beheading on March 8 of Dulal Sarkar, a lay pastor and evangelist in Bangladesh. Sarkar worked with the Bangladesh Free Baptist Church in Jalalpur village as an evangelist and church planter. On the night of March 8 as he returned home, he was attacked and killed by Muslim extremists. His wife, Aruna, immediately filed a case against the killers, and three suspects were arrested. However, militants are now threatening Aruna and her children. The beheading is the second in the space of a year. Dr. Abdul Gani, a respected Christian leader, was decapitated by a gang of assailants in September 2004.
Oh yea, the teachings of Mohammed are peaceful and inclusive.

4/12 UPDATE: Compass Direct is reporting continued troubles for the family of Sarkar.
