Police have fired tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse thousands of protesters from Bangladesh's largest Islamic party, which is demanding the release of its leaders from prison.

Jamaat-e-Islami has enforced the strike as many of its leaders stand accused of crimes against humanity during Bangladesh's war of independence in 1971.
