Pink riots in Uganda -PHOTOS

Ugandan police fired teargas and water cannon to disperse opposition supporters who had gathered in a Kampala suburb on Wednesday to mourn people killed during demonstrations earlier this year.

According to the Business Day nine people were killed in the clampdown, and opposition leader Kizza Besigye was arrested and beaten by security agents. The clash followed a similar incident last week when police dispersed a much larger crowd that had gathered to hear Mr Besigye’s renewed calls for protests, after inflation hit an 18-year high last month.
