I was one of 250 unemployed people demonstrating in the street in 2004, but when we reached the governor's office we were surprised by the presence of the British forces. We started throwing stones at them because we believed that they were behind all our misery. |
They were beating us with fists and batons and were kicking us. Then they cuffed our hands and also dragged us to their base, which is about 15 meters (yards) from the governor's office, where they also beat us and frightened us with dogs before releasing us before sunset. |
