1:01 pm

1:03 pm
but nothing officially announced. but everybody in the streets, every corner of the city, thousands of people out, we are near to the suburbs square, which is the epic center of student. protests says, i don't know the number of people is the for on. i've never seen anything like that in the capital city, a protest, tens of thousands of mostly students, probably, you know, even family paper with the children out to celebrate the practically that check in for sure that she is a left, the country resigned. or she may soon be living, and the government most likely is in a fall in our step down and the army will decide what's the next step? probably an interim government with the can't take a type of government for the intern period. will know morning details maybe after 9 g m t local time. but at this point the main story is the celebration. the
1:04 pm
on the east side for the guys were you know, you're inside the army, play the people generally love the army. good thing down a new tell body and i says they can handle said grace the what we saw in the past several weeks, the violence and everything. they have confidence on the army that can manage the situation. and the army doesn't want to be that any of the people, and that's why people have confidence that i may, will control the situation in a neutral and proper manner. every lives will be saved, property is,
1:05 pm
will be saved. so this is what they're saying in just about an hour. i got the students right hanging out, flowers to the, to the military trip. you know, i, my port hours bad. the police were still tracking down on students and the university campuses. that's why are they wrong? you know, people were injured, you know, some probably paperless, but that all thing is over and people are relieved that this router track done for the past several weeks is finally over. and that they can look for the new future. and we'll continue on the coverage of this story. the prime minister's resignation follows weeks of violent unrest and wishing the 300 people have been killed. protest is qualified to quits, have been celebrating on the streets of the capital dot com. how does um, how many takes a look back? a check i've seen as political career shake. i've seen it was, it was false. will need a spring minister in 1996. but even then she understood bundle,
1:06 pm
dish government politics better than most of the do to ship. would you believe month considered the countries funding funded? he's 3 was needing to train the homeland and violence become a common theme. in 1975, the jeep was serving us president when he was assessing along with most of the family in a military coup. how senior was abroad at the time. years later, she was elected to lead her fathers, a woman leak, putting on the lot 3 ton to bangladesh in 2004. as the position a senior was speaking to thousands of support us at the right when the needs were thrown into the crowds. yes, he does, and so a senior was injured but suffice. in 2007, she was arrested and charged with extortion in the matter of 4 people, including political demonstrations and rest. but she was kid
1:07 pm
a late to re elected several times as prime minister. i mean, the longer she state impala, the mall has seen it was accused of becoming increasing sort acadia with meaningful position members, arrested or tried. a government was repeatedly accused of cracking down on defense of freedom of expression. in 2017. as seen as that as prime minister, a cut down by me and most community against only the 2 hundreds of thousands of for linked to neighboring bundle dish. into eddie days of the crisis i've seen, i've visited of fiji company in cox was expressing sympathy. and so today, during our leadership, casino was credited with both a see, both corrupted,
1:08 pm
social development and economy goes in a country this home to more than 160000000 people. but critics and opposition lead to say the goose favorite, the country was the process of the bundle of dish rolling aligns one virtually every parliamentary seats in the country general election in 2019 she has seen the king prime minister for a full time of record, she comes to continue to develop bundle, dish and economy, but also attacks our rivals, the bundle dish nationally spot to be in p. c was the main part the or the boss decision, right? the, the, the, the, then the government as far as the
1:09 pm
so the, is the funeral home in 2023. the position supporters to the states to be mind. i've seen a specific mission. and for hahn not to contest the 2024 election she'd note the calls on one of the system in office of the opposition by go to an extra to shake. i've seen a support us. she was a beloved figure who forge a new possible bundle of dish to our critics. i've seen a success. even the economic ones came up too heavy a price. i mean, i'm well, let's talk to tony trying. he joins us now from bangkok we have now some very serious and potentially historic developments unfolding for bangladesh itself. but they're all also important consequences for countries in the region. tell us what
1:10 pm
this could mean to me and ma, and i think that's what a lot of people of not really within me a month, but on that folder and coaxes bizarre. so we'll be thinking they're currently over a 1000000 running to refugees repeating the if in any 5 years. now, the future remains very on. second. in the last 6 months, we've seen increased activity in we're kind state where they come from as the ara can. all me, one of the ethnic groups is fighting against me and most military just that has made the very serious gains against the military ginger itself in that state. but has also pushed many more rank of refugees out of the country as they've been codes . but between the 2 bath link sides, i think while the oldest see was another bunch, happiness will shake who's seen within. but i think the dish, i think for many of the people working those cam, she was at least
1:11 pm
a fairly reliable pop. but, and they'll be watching very closely what kind of an interim government is phones, what it's attitude is going to be towards the wrangler who apparently shouts, trying inside bank the bush. it is not surprisingly, an enormous button on bangladesh. much of the financial commitment has met from the international community, but we've also heard in the past 12 months, complaints from within the camp, so that international support isn't sufficient. people have had the food rations cards on a daily basis. so it is clearly something which needs change attention. bangladesh has been incredibly hospitable to their anger. i think there will be a lot of concern as to what happens next. and this is, it is important to take this into consideration right now is in tech, because as you've pointed out, bangladesh is hosting moving a 1000000 rand, good people, many of whom flight of brutal cracked down in the, in my,
1:12 pm
in 2017. i knew and was seeking some $850000000.00 full. then we speak about international commitments to try and meet the needs and that money is been, it's been a struggle to try and get that. what are the conditions facing these refugees in bangladesh and what, what was political on some t means for them? so the conditions have been getting increasingly tough, both in terms of the food that we just discussed, rations being causes as those international funds haven't been forthcoming. but also in security terms as well, and this will be a real concern for the internet and government to because we've seen that balance on the other side of the board. and we've seen various groups clashing on occasion in the past few months. those bites of spilled out into the camps themselves. they're their inspections, all the groups inside me, i am a witch and now represented inside the camps. the fighting with each of the gun
1:13 pm
fires is nothing to, to break out fairly frequently in the, in the night. that the various groups clashed and, and the innocent rank are getting cold in between. there's also a concern about the poorest nature of the border. it is a very long one which is relatively easily cross and i think any incoming administration will be deeply concerned if there are um groups that are traveling to, to improve pro from mit and into bangladesh. be using that as a relatively easy crossing point. thank you. very much for now, do appreciate that tiny change. joining us from bangkok with some analysis on the the, the regional implications of what we see now in bangladesh. also please to say the irene khan, you're in special rock, the to on the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of opinion. an expression joins us from dot com. what information do you have about the situation that right now and do you have confidence that the army will be able to keep the
1:14 pm
peace as well? i'm right here in taca and just a few hours ago learned that the prime minister resigned and governor of pain and left the country just jubilation of the streets. i was out there, i saw the people celebrating 1st and foremost, i think the army has stopped killed the bloodshed and that is buried and there are about, uh huh. there are hundreds of problems. some say about 1000000 people are converging and talk, or i know people have confidence in the army was the problem with some of them were shaking hands with the soldiers so increased that should have stopped. the army has a very tough job head right now. it has promised to create an interim government and we are all hoping that the transition would be peaceful and that that would be accountability for all the human rights foundations that have taken place recently, including the tenant about 300 people in increase in the last 3 weeks and then of course, bottom additionally knows a task ahead. it is not the, the post
1:15 pm
a poster child of the sustainable development anymore. the previous government had driven this country into despair. and there would be a lot of hard work to do to build at all. but most for i think extremely important that the army respect human rights and, and i was just going to also do it. i mean, i was just, i was just going to ask you um, irene con, because as you say, the army come on is a great deal of respect to the country, but the student protest is reject and then it free government. they don't want that . so how fragile is the situation going to be right now in terms of what they will do to introduce an interim system that will bring the country back to democracy? the yes, well, no one, not just the street is no one in the country, wants me to create a root. again, this country's gone for that. they've just over throwing it up for a tire in lead or so that they're not looking forward to long term. i mean,
1:16 pm
excuse me, he's a very, a time just a couple of hours and the monitoring she's supposed to meet a public statement in which she talked about an intern government. i think people would be watching very closely to see who it was deducting to, and government to make sure that it is that inclusive and i'm a civilian government. so this is a question of transition. i think it, the army believes that it's got controlled this concrete submitted for. you only have to look at the streets. you can see the people out there effectively. people with peacefully, without arms, had the throne. i know for a targeting machine that has gained credit. what sort of timeline for that would you be comfortable with? i think a few months because we also know that to around the world, there's plenty of examples where the army comes in, develop good intentions, and then stays on. and we would not like to see that happening in this country. it does not go to other people. it's not put to the human rights situation in this country. i think uh the army would find a lot of corporation, a lot of support for
1:17 pm
a speedy but expected and peaceful transition. democratic do begin. one of the other immediate challenges in terms of security, for example, reprisal attacks which might take place, particularly for the violations over the past few weeks that you mention. yes, i think that's a very good point right now. we saw on television that the crowd said was going to go into a problem, which is the prime ministers, official residents, but she had just vacated, literally an hour or so ago to going in. and they were thinking of things. uh, i was gonna do think stephanie, they'll be nothing to do the was to the nurse, and the crowds are everywhere. so the likelihood of, uh, things getting all the time is of course, there and down because i think probably the cheese, the biggest problem for right now. but if you has a lot of good b, u has brought in. uh, uh, the various opposition, political policies into a pharmacy. he's about to go see the president though, and i hope people include civil society and bringing the plate and bringing the
1:18 pm
students in, bringing other parts of civil society inch and also the business people. that's really the way to go forward. the country has a lot. you cannot make problems high inflation, uh, until the prices have gone off even higher in the last few months of people employment to remember the streaming process started on the issue of employment and job. okay. so all those problems are there and expect patients would be very high. first and foremost, this army should promote human rights approach to accountability and a democratic transition and allow the new democratic government to be intrusive, one for elections, free and fair elections. that can start checking these issues. do you have concerns about how some of bangladesh is neighbors might respond as well? it has been interested in i, but in you for example, i believe the prime minister occur assistance on the brand new standing system fuse tango. india has been across and i a bundle dish under different though he's been
1:19 pm
particularly close to the previous one. and i hope, but i think they will see the change as a positive change and we support the demographic transition. i heard about this situation about the me in my refugees, but i'm going to, it's just been very generous to them in north adjacent. i think people are generally the public opinion. we're not taught guest of the refugees as long as the international community continues to support them. so the neighbors are watching some net force, maybe watching to see what this is big control from this uprising of youth to overdraw, to retire in some other places. thank you very much for giving us your reaction to what is happening there. and kind of hiring con, you and special rapids are on the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of opinion and expression. i think that's now speak to tons of chandry joins us live. he's also in the car in town where you've been speaking for the past couple of hours about scenes of celebration,
1:20 pm
emotions running quite high on the streets of bangladesh. even before news of charlotte has seen his departure was confirmed. what more can you tell us about the, the atmosphere and the mood on the streets that well, after 2 weeks of crash, so many debts, people have celebrated not very morning that, that, but that celebrating on it's not just a student with people from all walks of life coming out industry, many i met from the opposite, each of member people from, you know, just every walks of life. and they're saying that the, this was coming in of this not to happen because we couldn't open our mouth. democracy was almost squeeze. it does nothing we. busy say, and now we are free and that he's got mad or anybody who comes to power next time they know the power of the students that we will not colored and it kind of big, big or shape or mismanagement. and did that, and the student will decide on that. so along with the celebration,
1:21 pm
there's been some vandalism, binding of stocks in a breaking off. you know, such as the father of the nation. they have to take care of those sort of things going on that we know that that's been uh, people broke into the appreciate of 5 minutes of the residents actually should come soon as the rest of them and started vandalizing the rest of them. this is about a half an hour to 45 minutes ago, and it's still an ongoing situation as not that farmer kid came into bob officially and also the government has resign. and the prime minister and the search checker has the residents. we don't know officially where they left for whether that she's still in the country or not. but she has laptops for each other, rest of them and the government has resigned that according to the chief i'm are mixed up. was in there just a little while ago. the yes and in terms of the remarks we've heard from the army
1:22 pm
chief con, via the all new chief has said that all the protest as demands will be met and the justice will be. so for those who have been killed because over the last 3 weeks, i think close to 300 people have died in these protests which authorities have tried to crush with heavy hand. so now i suppose people are waiting to see how the army is going to take control, whether they can keep a piece and ultimately deliver accountability for the human rights violations. the real expectation, you're absolutely right, that people do have problems with them on the army. typically the country with texas army and the neutrality in most situations, although there was some controversy at the beginning, but the army was the main to them, which was the question. it was about the army roles. but now the army just about in
1:23 pm
the morning to 11 in the morning, look, i'm fine with this by gmc, the police were tracking down the army. was that the okay within an hour? when to discuss the coming, i think the flowers that were in, but i think i took out the taken positive. but as you take what people know to develop it for all the people. yeah, i wouldn't have died. why that should be done even till yesterday, over nearly or over 90, people died on thousands of danger. many behind that, but at least 10000 people that picked up today don't have to be really people from off of the somebody, people, just bystanders or a beaten by rest and talk to them. they have to be relieved that some people really keep demanding on the army administration. part of that is i can't think of that make the to the left to comply with
1:24 pm
a danger of getting down on the fence is there for now. everything is we have to see this is the great time to all the blog, the thousands of people that difficult to get all. busy the patients filaments about when, okay, tunzia chandry, thank you very much for now joining us that from the car. and these are some of the pictures that we've been seeing of people taking to the streets and celebration of the departure of the government. that quite remarkable developments people celebrating the end of share i've seen is rule. let's go to cover function class now and speak to come all high to enjoys us from there. and you've been watching all this very closely. come off. bangladesh has a history of military coups, but right now for now, the army chief is made it very clear that they want to meet the demands of the protest is. so everyone leave watching very closely to see whether or not they will
1:25 pm
on the that the promises on of that pledge to essentially deliver the country into civilian rule to august. right. free and fair elections. yes, indeed, i do that really be the key question. as to what really be the military drawer that you heard from sand ridge judge, re days, respect for the military. however, that would depend on the performance of the military. the military also knows that this is not a popular nationwide movement. and we're not going to get them embroidered by printing themselves against the paper. so the ministry of gloss is showing signs that they are likely to go for them instead of government. i do not. why did that had an election earlier this year? and richard for the band and the floods came down hard on the opposition parties and did not get loud them into effect. and the election day should have been in
1:26 pm
debt in government before that election, that didn't happen either. so what people in the days or guards have expressed the, or the fact that they do not want to see another minute because the job, they don't want the ability to take all well. but they do see the paul ford roll of the military and trying to dispute the situation greater be important to say way that they and get them government, would it be acceptable to the people started off as a simpler, as children protest turned out and do a match movement, although the longer the supreme court and now is that they had to agree i didn't or the demands of the students by the moving the high court does call certain uh, a bar the lawyer list of i do not watch it. and i've got that warranted a very shade of the court as part of the environment. the concern, like because the security portez ordered by a team or why did,
1:27 pm
can don't hard on these projectors that negative so many dates. i mean, get a that the movement to a nation wide movement. i do not. why did the tech threaten that keyboard crunch them? saying that did what came in those? all the students initially weren't there did resignation of certain k minister. but when that didn't happen, the move done and then drank it again to brian minute. the says. and so now everybody really be looking at the military to see whether they really be able to bring butler, they charge of this crisis. i know they start to be able to go for day. now we'll try and get them. government regret, hoyde fed and pre election and hand over power to the elected representative of the people as for the richard of the bung that there should be. but okay, or thank you very much. come on hider, i appreciate you doing, is that from a kind of a pontoon club and just a short while ago we heard from the military chief of bangladesh,
1:28 pm
walker was among confirmed the resignation of sheriff. i see now we know that there has been violent unrest in the country. i have aust, leaders of all political parties to come here. and we have had a good discussion which we decided to establish an in from government. couple run the country. i mean, for hundreds of full member of parliament for the opposition findings actually nationalist party and the supreme court advocate and virus to she joins us on the phone now from dot com. what is your response to these developments now? do you have faith that the army will indeed deliver a power back to the people? absolutely right. it is the victor of the people in the 1st of all, i'd like to congratulate the people of butler. this is deb victory. they demanded uh, you know, just to they wanted has the not to step down and they become successful homeless
1:29 pm
and we are really very happy. it's, you know, off to 92081. it's of spinning all that we are being liberated for the 2nd time in our own nation. so it's, it's a different city altogether. yeah. the army has aust for the students, the protest is to remain calm and to return home. they are also now speaking with numbers, representatives of all the main parties, i suppose to try and, and still some sort of interim government. if this doesn't happen quite quickly, could we see the celebratory mood on the streets change into something else? what i believe is people want to say not to step down, people want a proper election, they want to be both a one. is there a representative in the parliament?
1:30 pm
so what we expect that the interim guardsman to be and initiate a new election, where all the parties can participate, where people can both really and this people, the 17 career people have been deprived for last 17 years from voting rights. so, you know, i believe that doesn't term god's been been work for a new reaction. what sort of timeline would you give it? because cause the thing that started all of this was essentially a very difficult economic situation. inflation and unemployment, massive obstacles, causing a lot of pressure on people there. i suppose that increases the urgency of that being some sort of political stability sit quite quickly. absolutely, absolutely, but i think it's too early to make any comment that uh how long they need to give an election, but i think they really do it as early as possible because you know,
1:31 pm
the people have already proven that their power is the ultimate power and if they want, they can move an alternative development like hot c no. so they can do any p being the people. this is the last word. so they will decide what to do, how to do when to do the representatives of the main political policies at having discussions with the army. what about the role of civil society of the 5 do you have already made themselves very clear that most of them they express? that's all it already with the students long back. we have seen the teacher is the doctor. the student is a lawyer. they all come across from all the different professions they, all of, you know, express the folder to the student. they're better on road. so we have seen that it's, you know, it's a mass movement from every sector of the society and just put it into context for is what, how would you describe the, the significance of this moment now,
1:32 pm
for the people of bangladesh, especially off to the indiscriminate killings and violations of the past few weeks . and of course, any opposition has been building against she has enough for, for some years now. how, how much of a watershed moment is this for the country? i can see joy and the sorrow at the same time. i can see joy of victory. i can see sorrow for the people that we have already lost. it's a mixed feeling icon. just express, you know, 17 years of a long time. and we'll be ready, price promo, what freedom of speech be ready to press on more freedom of movement. many of the brothers had been picked up that were killed or objected. they were tortured independent custody. and the rep custody. i mean, it's altogether different training. at one point we are probably a, you know, in the next point we are smiling for our joy. so it's completely
1:33 pm
a mixed feeling. i can't express it pretty well. you surprise that shared hosting i lost the support of the minute trio. is that something you've been anticipating a she has lost people support long, long, long back. she was install, we're with the help of the law enforcement agency, the other, you know, states missionaries. so people, they would not be a tougher nose, so she was not elected in 2012 to $14.00. she was not elected to print it, then she was not elected in 2025. these 3 elections were absolutely sham plastic. so people was all the way password is blocked many years. thank you very much for being sort of honda full, a member of parliament steel position, bangladesh, nationalist policy, the supreme court advocating buyers to joining us that on the phone from the bangladesh capital dot com or it's maybe just worth taking a look at that at how all of this on rest 1st began that students started
1:34 pm
protesting last month when a controversial job quoted system. the favorite children of war veterans was reinstated by the high court. the government responded by shutting down universities and using the police in the military to crank down on protest. his private associate has he not imposed a nationwide costs you and costs off access to phones in the internet around 200 people, mostly students were killed. thousands has been arrested on july 21st. bangladesh has taught court stepped in. they rule that the quotes as should be scaled back from 30 percent to 5 percent. with 3 percent, the relatives of veterans last week demonstrations resumed and mid outrage of the violence and the killing were sizes of issued new demands, including bridget bringing justice and accountability for those killed out of course of the prime minister to step down. now, as he now had vowed, a strong responsive this calling for the demonstrate quoting demonstrations,
1:35 pm
criminals and that sabbath has us arise is executive editor of the contribution he joins us now from call. can i ask for your reaction to what we see happening? how would you describe these developments that we've seen over the past few hours? thank you for having me bust upon the probably the score had been the best possible solution to the blind that we have reached. we had reached over the last 2 weeks or so. so i think uh there was a no laptop in blackshear on the streets as uh, the, uh, losing the body to where uh, engaging them. so the setting their scores on the streets and the cost of too many lives to do, to sort of p 11th and validate have as never seen, such a block should see, is it just delivery to the water in 1971. so given that to, that's kind of the scenario i didn't. yeah. did. did you get this book would be the
1:36 pm
best possible solution we have now? are you concerned about what might come next? obviously, this is a period of uncertainty and transition for the country. the army has promised to so that to be free and fair elections, they're going to have an interim government to civilian government. but what do you, what are the obstacles that you might be watching for now? exactly as you would just say that the and the probably the nose no by now that the actually the bottom of the issue i'll meet you has just a few. a few ones already are announced that the dad in the process of uh, uh, an installment. okay. and entering got bend as soon as possible. so i think this is necessary for several reasons. to install it in an indian golf fence because we need it. uh and uh, we need to bring back the order. um,
1:37 pm
because we have all responsible in front of our ways over the last 2 weeks, we have seen lots of products and it many you can log in this pro uh, process and do day. i'm just to trace from a use crowd, the speed up on the street leading to our stuff of what would be just the pioneers just i'll be sure to visit us and bottom at the bottom and halls. so this is there but doing all of that. so people in jubilation moving to us those static shows and some of them activity and the bending out of the deer and yours. and also, julian spilled onset at the equity of these. it'd be because of this change over, but soon indeed there is a possibility that because of the ecstasy of this relationship, the, i mean, the baby is some sort of activity there. uh, yeah,
1:38 pm
there are instances in some of the previous, the many years back, those kind of things that happen. but in the relation some people may do, excess reach may truly do, but i kind of order we want to be back in this country. so that's why you think that to that, as you say, this is the people side of the pricing. this is what they wanted. but our expectations very high now. and could that lead to disappointment, pap? season? i'm go or if people feel as though that to moms and don't match a hi dig a, this is a fun man. will love to come in. did see the explanation. they had been long been fighting for i'm in the video club for basic uh, being used to have it. and collection plan thinking gosh, beautiful. so because been too long, they have been actually, uh now when,
1:39 pm
