0:31Now PlayingBangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina fled the country on Monday after resigning under pressure from millions of protesters, with the nation’s army chief saying he’ll work to form an interim government.
Army Chief Waker-Uz-Zaman said in a televised address that he’d met with political leaders in the country and will hold talks with President Mohammed Shahabuddin on the matter. The army expects to reach a solution tonight, he said.
“An interim government will be formed,” the army chief said. “Justice will be served for each death. Keep faith in the army.”
Hasina, 76, left Bangladesh shortly before the army’s announcement and was on her way to London via India, according to people familiar with the matter. She’d faced pressure to resign for weeks following demonstrations that had turned deadly.
