BISHKEK, April 8 (Xinhua) -- Kyrgyz opposition parties Thursday formed an interim ruling coalition to replace the government of President Kurmanbek Bakiyev, who has fled to southern Kyrgyzstan after a day of bloody unrest in the capital.

The move was announced at a news conference by Roza Otunbayeva, who will serve as prime minister.

The new governing body would fulfil the duties of the president and the government and rule the Central Asian nation of five million for six months before calling new elections, she said.

The new government has four deputy prime ministers.

Kyrgyzstan's opposition said on Thursday it had taken power and dissolved parliament in the poor but strategically important Central Asian state after deadly protests forced President Kurmanbek Bakiyev to flee the capital.

She said Wednesday's demonstration in Bishkek was a struggle against the former government's "autarchy" and "tyranny." She also said the former government was accountable for the bloodshed.

She said the opposition was looking for Bakiyev to discuss a transition of power but had failed to establish contact with him. His whereabouts remained unknown.

The governor of the southern Jalalabad state told Ferghana news agency that Bakiyev, who was first elected president in 2005 and reelected in 2009, had resigned.

Bakiyev, who was born in 1949 in Jalalabad state, fled to southern Kyrgyzstan after the presidential palace in Bishkek was stormed and occupied by opposition supporters Wednesday night.
