Police breaks up radical group’s picket outside Foreign Ministry
Assa-Irada, Azerbaijan
Sept 14 2004
On Monday, the Garabagh Liberation Organization (GLO) picketed the
Foreign Ministry in protest against the planned visit by Armenian
officers to Baku.
The protesters showed placards “Either Garabagh or death!” and “Down
with Armenians!”.
The police break up the protest action and took some of the radical
group members, who attempted to march towards the Interior Ministry
along Husu Hajiyev Street, to the police precinct. The detainees were
released later.
The GLO will hold another protest action outside the Defense Ministry
on Tuesday.*
