ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Kyrgyzstan opposition leader Kurmanbek Bakiev says he has been named acting president, a day after protests toppled the central Asian state's government. Mr Bakiev, an economist, said he had been given the title in addition to that of acting prime minister.
A BBC correspondent in the capital, Biskek, says calm has now returned after Thursday's scenes of violence.
Three people are reported to have been killed overnight, as looting swept the city and buildings were burnt down.
Opposition leaders have promised to prevent their victory disintegrating into chaos.
The opposition has now formed a so-called Council of People's Unity in an attempt to bring together various anti-government groups.
Confusion still surrounds the whereabouts of President Askar Akayev.
He is said to have fled the country with his family, with unconfirmed reports saying he is in neighbouring Kazakhstan.
Baktybek Abrissaev, Kyrgysztan's ambassador to the US, described the takeover as an illegal act."
