Police disperse Tunis protests

2011-08-16

Tunisian security forces on Monday (August 15th) used tear gas to disperse protests in Tunis, TAP reported. The Tunisian General Labor Union (UGTT) organized a large rally to demand that the interim government respect the principles of the revolution and undertake judicial and legislative reforms. When lawyers protesting separately outside the Justice Ministry attempted to join the UGTT march on Mohamed V Avenue, police intervened. According to TAP, protestors were prevented from filming the clashes with their mobile phones.
