Anti-government protests leave dozens dead, hundreds more injured in Bangladesh
Nearly 100 people were reported killed and hundreds more injured on Sunday amid renewed anti-government protests in Bangladesh. According to the country’s leading Bengali-language daily, Prothom Alo, at least 95 people, including at least 14 police officers, died in Sunday’s violence. However, Channel 24 put the number of killed people at 85. The military imposed a new curfew in the country, including in the capital, Dhaka, and other divisional and district headquarters on Sunday evening for an indefinite period. The protesters are calling for Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s resignation following July protests that began with students calling for an end to a quota system for government jobs. The demonstrations soon escalated into violence and left over 200 people dead. Protesters have been criticizing the prime minister’s handling of the protests, accusing him of cutting off mobile internet in a bid to quell the unrest and of “sabotage”. On Sunday, the government announced a holiday from Monday to Wednesday. Courts in the country have been closed indefinitely, mobile Internet service is cut off, and Facebook and messaging apps, including WhatsApp, are inaccessible. Junior Minister for Information and Broadcasting Mohammad Ali Arafat said the services were severed to help prevent violence. At least 11,000 people have been reportedly arrested in anti-government protests in recent weeks.
