We get an update from Dhaka, where Bangladesh’s president dissolved Parliament on Tuesday, a day after the long-ruling Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned and fled the country amid a wave of student protests. The military says an interim government will be formed to lead the country to new elections, but its makeup remains unclear, with many students demanding the installation of Nobel Prize-winning economist Muhammad Yunus as interim prime minister. More than 400 people have been killed in a violent crackdown since protests began over anger at a quota system for government jobs. We are joined by Tanjeem Arnob, a student at Brac University in Dhaka who has taken part in recent protests, and Irene Khan, U.N. special rapporteur on freedom of opinion and expression who served as secretary general of Amnesty International from 2001 to 2009.
