March 21 2008
Russia
A public protest action has resumed in Yerevan after the state of
emergency regime was canceled. About a thousand people have gathered
for the rally, but more are joining them, REGNUM correspondent has
reported. "Armed" with black ribbons, candles, flowers, and portraits
of arrested protesters, the rally attendants have gathered at the
Freedom Square.
The participants want to commemorate people killed in the mass
disorders on March 1. The law enforcement officers did not allow them
to light candles on the square perimeter. They pushed the people back
by police shields, without the use of force.
The rally has moved to the Alexander Miasnikyan Monument where the
tragic events of March 1 took place.
