(ANSA) - SKOPJE - Macedonian police have detained about 30
people, including a former interior minister, former police
officials and opposition conservative lawmakers over an invasion
of parliament in last April 27th.
The public prosecutor's office ordered early Tuesday for 36 people to be detained in connection with the attack by protesters that left more than 100 people injured, charged with "terrorist threat to the constitutional order and security," which carries a minimum jail sentence of 4 years.
The protesters had stormed the parliament after the country's opposition Social Democrat party and others representing Macedonia's Albanian ethnic minority voted for a new speaker.
The protesters attacked journalists and lawmakers, including the opposition leader, Zoran Zaev, now Macedonia's acting prime minister.
