Bangladesh Turmoil: Khaleda Zia, Former PM Released As Army Seizes Control After Hasina's Escape

Bangladesh's President ordered the release of jailed opposition leader Khaleda Zia after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned and fled amid violent protests.

Army chief General Waker-Uz-Zaman took control, announcing an interim government.

Zia, Hasina's arch-rival and former Prime Minister, was imprisoned in 2018 on corruption charges.

Hasina is reportedly seeking asylum in the UK.
