Clashes break out between police and protesters demonstrating against claims of vote-rigging
At least 120 people have been taken to hospital with injuries in Kyrgyzstan’s capital Bishkek after clashes broke out between police and protesters over a disputed parliamentary election, health authorities said Monday.
Opposition supporters took to the streets and called for pro-Russian president Sooronbay Jeenbekov to resign after at least 10 political parties called for a re-run of Sunday’s election after widespread claims of vote-buying.
