An antigovernment protester holds a Turkish national flag with a portrait of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk,
founder of modern Turkey, on it during a demonstration in Ankara late June 2, 2013.
Turkish Interior Minister Muammer Guler said that 115 police officers and 58 protesters were
injured in the antigovernment demonstrations which were staged last week by a group of
protesters in Istanbul Taksim’s Gezi Park to stand guard against the uprooting of trees.
The minister said that 235 demonstrations have been held so far in 67 provinces across the
country, 730 people detained in connection with the protests.
The crowd was dispersed by riot police who arrived on the scene early on Friday with riot control
vehicles and pepper spray.
The demonstrations that later gripped other Turkish cities as well continued in the weekend
and into the early hours of Monday with some protesters setting fire to offices of the ruling Justice and Development Party.
