from Sputnik News:
Muhammad Yunus, 84, has reportedly agreed to serve as the leader of the military-controlled government. The banker and scholar, who is beloved by the US, has faced more than 100 lawsuits under his predecessor’s rule, which he has accused of being politically motivated. Hasina once accused Yunus of “sucking blood from the poor”.

Hasina had been the longest serving female prime minister in the world, having served from 2009 until now and previously from 1996 to 2001. According to British media Hasina’s term showed success in delivering developmental and economic growth, but critics claim the wealthy benefited disproportionately. Hasina was taken from Dhaka to India and will reportedly seek asylum abroad.
“I [do not think it’s] credible that a group of students could bring down a government in such a short time. We do know that the NED has been pouring millions of dollars to NGO groups in Bangladesh – $4 million in 2021 alone,” Noh explained. “That in itself is necessary, but not sufficient.”
Noh added that the US has voiced its opinions publicly regarding the political system in Bangladesh. In early January of this year the US said Bangladesh’s election was “not free or fair” after Hasina won her fifth term.
