Bangladesh CJ Obaidul Hassan Resigns Amid Protests
News summary

Bangladesh's Chief Justice Obaidul Hassan resigned after intense student-led protests demanded his departure, accusing him of being a loyalist to ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. The protesters issued a two-hour ultimatum, leading to Hassan's resignation and the subsequent resignations of five other top court judges and Bangladesh Bank Governor Abdur Rouf Talukder. The unrest follows Hasina's resignation and flight to India amid widespread protests that resulted in over 400 deaths and accusations of corruption and autocracy. An interim government led by Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus has been established, tasked with stabilizing the country and organizing elections within 90 days.
