At least 27 people were killed and scores injured in clashes in Bangladesh on Sunday, as police fired tear gas and lobbed stun grenades to disperse tens of thousands of protesters calling for Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to resign. The interior ministry declared an indefinite nationwide curfew starting at 6 p.m. on Sunday, the first time it has taken such a step during the current protests that began last month.
” Two construction workers were killed on their way to work and 30 injured in the central district of Munsiganj, during a three-way clash of protesters, police and ruling party activists, witnesses said. “They were brought dead to the hospital with bullet wounds,” said Abu Hena Mohammad Jamal, the superintendent of the district hospital. Police said they had not fired any bullets, however, when some improvised explosives were detonated and the area turned into a battleground.
