Bangladesh's Chief Justice Obaidul Hassan has resigned following protests by students and demonstrators, as the country's interim government led by Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus takes charge after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's resignation and departure to India.
The law, justice, and parliamentary affairs adviser to the interim government confirmed the receipt of the resignation letter and stated that it would be forwarded to the country's President for further procedures. Additionally, five other top judges in the Supreme Court also resigned as part of the government's efforts to reorganize the judiciary.
