Bangladesh's New PM Announced: Nobel Winner Muhammad Yunus To Lead Bangladesh As Death Toll Mounts

Muhammad Yunus has been chosen to lead Bangladesh's transitional government following mass student protests that ousted longtime Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

Yunus, known for pioneering microcredit through Grameen Bank, had a contentious relationship with Hasina's government.

Student protesters nominated Yunus as interim leader after weeks of demonstrations against job quotas turned deadly.
