Bangladesh's interim government is completing six months into power this month after former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was ousted in August last year in a student-led mass uprising.

A mob in Bangladesh has demolished the Dhaka family home of ousted prime minister Sheikh Hasina and properties owned by some of her relatives. Leaders of Hasina's Awami League party were also targeted by the mob.

On Wednesday night, a massive mob set fire to Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's house in Dhaka after his daughter and ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina appealed to Awami League workers to protest against the Muhammad Yunus-led interim government.
