Attackers killed three people Wednesday at a publishing house that had been in the past the subject of protests for distributing Bibles in Turkey, the government-run Anatolia news agency reported.
One person who had his throat cut inside the publishing house and another who jumped from the third floor to escape were taken to nearby hospitals for treatment, the private Dogan news agency said. Anatolia said one of those taken to the hospital later died.
There has been protests outside the Zirve publishing house in the city of Malatya, accusing it of proselytizing, Dogan reported.
