So the Sikh protesters in Birmingham got their way, and succeeded in forcing a theatre to close a play they took exception to. |
The contest became a target in 1970 when women protesters disrupted the event. |
Police also forcibly dispersed a slogan-shouting crowd of protesters in the adjoining city of Bhaktapur, injuring two people. |
In a repeat of Sunday's clashes, police in full riot gear charged the protesters and used water cannons to disperse the angry crowds. |
About 40 protesters blockaded the Burnhills landfill last Saturday and prevented delivery of six wagonloads of waste. |
The protests were explosions of anger in which typically anywhere between 500 and 1,000 protesters blocked busy roads with burning barricades. |
