The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for the murder this week of a Bangladesh policeman, as fears of Islamist violence grow in the moderate Muslim-majority country.

A police officer was stabbed to death in Bangladesh today and another badly injured in the second such attack in less than a month, blamed by the home minister on hardline Islamists.
