Protesters continue to demolish the residence of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman at Dhanmondi 32 after dawn today.

An excavator is being used to tear down the structure.

The protest was sparked by a Facebook-organised event titled "Bulldozer March," which brought crowds to Dhanmondi 32 at 7:30pm yesterday. By 9:30pm, the building was set ablaze.

Shortly before midnight, at least one crane and an excavator arrived at the scene. By 2:00am today, parts of the building were razed to the ground.
