Bangalore lawyers attack reporters with stones, iron chairs
For about 60 minutes this morning, media crews outside a Bangalore court tried to duck stones, helmets, iron chairs all being flung at them by a group of nearly 500 lawyers. The riot lasted for an hour and subsided after the police resorted to a lathi-charge and tear-gassing. Ten journalists, most of them cameramen, are recovering in different hospitals in the city. Seven lawyers and 30 policemen were also injured.
