A massive crowd of protesters on Monday (August 5) stormed the former Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina's official residence 'Ganabhaban', shouting slogans, pumping fists and showing victory signs amid her resignation.
Crowds were seen in the drawing rooms of the residence in capital Dhaka, and some people could be seen carrying away televisions, chairs and tables from what was one of the most protected buildings in the country.
The chaotic scenes came after Hasina resigned on Monday and fled the country, multiple sources said, and also followed deadly clashes across the country which killed nearly 100 people a day earlier.
Bangladesh has been engulfed by protests and violence that began last month after student groups demanded scrapping of a controversial quota system in government jobs.
