 The decision to impose a nationwide curfew came after at least 35 people were killed in clashes on Friday, the deadliest day for the protests so far. A spokesman for the Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said the curfew would take immediate effect. Police fired tear gas and rubber bullets in Dhaka to disperse protesters who were throwing stones. Earlier, demonstrators stormed a prison in the city of Narsinghdi and freed hundreds of inmates.
