美国对孟加拉国活动人士，美使馆雇员被杀事件提出谴责

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has condemned the murder of Bangladeshi gay rights activist Xulhaz Mannan, who was an employee of the U.S. embassy in Dhaka.

Kerry said in a statement late Monday: "We are profoundly saddened by the loss of one of our own in such a senseless act of violence." He also said Xulhaz "embodied the spirit of the people of Bangladesh and the pride with which they guard their traditions of tolerance, peace, and diversity."

Xulhaz and a companion were hacked to death by unidentified attackers on Monday.

A USAID official, Mannan, was at his home with his friend, Tanay Mojumdar, when five attackers arrived, disguised as couriers and pounced on them with machetes.

A security guard and a police officer- who tried to catch the assailants - were wounded in machete attacks.

克里星期一晚间发表声明说，“我们对自己中的一员死于如此愚蠢的暴力而深感悲痛”。克里还说，曼南体现了孟加拉国人民的精神以及他们维护容忍、和平与多元化之传统的骄傲。

曼南和一名同伴星期一被身份不明的袭击者砍死。

曼南是美国国际发展署雇员，他和朋友莫朱姆达尔当时正在他的住所，被5名冒充送货人的袭击者用砍刀杀害。

事发时，一名保安和一名警察试图抓住袭击者，结果被砍伤。
