Anti-riot police

Ankara Police Department Counterterrorism Unit officers detained 15 people in two separate incidents early Feb. 15 as a dispute erupted between the security personnel of an Ankara University campus and a group.

A plainclothes police officer has been captured on camera pressing his gun to the head of a journalist in the southeastern province of Diyarbak?r who was filming police operations, Dicle News Agency (D?HA) has reported.

Security has been stepped up in the village of Garmen, southwestern Bulgaria, ahead of a protest against illegal buildings and settlers in a Roma neighborhood.

Anti-riot police have been deployed around the Kremikovtsi neighborhood to preserve the order as locals have held rallies every evening in the past few days, calling for an end for lawlessness there.
