Members of Law enforcement agencies fired sound grenade after a group of protesters attempted to break through the security barricade in front of Bangabhaban in Dhaka around 8:30pm on Tuesday.

Members of the army and police were seen to stop them. However, to bring the situation under control police also charged batons at protesters and fired a sound grenade to disperse them, injuring at least one protestor, according to eyewitnesses.

The protesters were agitated and were chanting slogans demanding the president’s resignation. At this time they said, “They said, we are leaving as of today. But if the president does not resign within that period, I will come again.”

The police went inside the Bangabhaban compound and army personnel were seen talking to the protesters.
