Clash on the street of India as police took on rape protesters.

Police, protesters clash at India rape rally Police in India blasted protesters with water cannon and tear gas Saturday as clashes broke out at a rally in New Delhi against rape,leaving scores of people drenched and angry. The demonstration was prompted by wide publicoutrage over what police said was the gang-rape and beating of a 23-year-old woman on a moving busin the capital last Sunday. Her injuries were so severe she spent daysin intensive care in a city hospital, battling for her life. Police said Saturday that she had recovered enough to give a statement to a magistrate from her hospital bed the previous evening. Dozens of police, some equipped with bamboo canes, flanked the water cannon as it blasted out on to the thousands of protesters assembled by New Delhi's historic India Gate. Some demonstrators attempted to break through the security barriers blocking access to the country's government district, parliament building and presidential palace. Others chanted, punched the air in defiance and waved banners as the police sought to disperse them from Raisina Hill, the seat of Indian power. "Hang them till death," read the placard of oneprotester seeking capital punishment for rape suspects. "Stop this shame," readanother. A third said,"Give them the same physical torture." Shouts of "We want justice" also rose above the large and diverse crowd, symbolizing a widely feltanger over attacks against women. Bannersproclaiming the same message were marked with a hangman's noose. Surviving rape: iReporters speak out One young woman protester, who said herleg was injured by a blow from a police baton, lamented what she called a failure of democracy in the country. "Today, I have seen democracy dying," she said. New Delhi's police spokesman Rajan Bhagat said up to 35 protesters and nearly 40 police personnel were injured. Thirty barricades were damaged in the course of the protest, he said, and police fired 125 tear gas shells. A number of vehicles were also damaged, he said. Saturday's furious protest was just the latest held across the country in the past week, where official data show that rape cases have jumped almost 875% over the past 40 years -- from 2,487 in 1971 to 24,206in 2011. New Delhi alone reported 572 rapes lastyear and more than 600in 2012. Bhavyaa Sharma, a 19-year-old student at a leading women's college in the capital, told CNN how she fearsfor her safety when she leaves the campus.Sexual assaults on women in the city have horrified her and her female friends. "I feel vulnerable here," said Sharma, accompanied by her classmates. "I am very sure about it. Delhi is not safe for women." Opinion: Rapes show that Indian society needs a new attitude Six suspects, including the bus driver and a minor, have now been arrested in connection with Sunday's rape. As fury about the assault gathered pace, some Indian lawmakers even called for treatingrape as a capital crime. "We'll work collectively to see we make a law which is deterrent and preventive," said New Delhi's chief minister, Sheila Dikshit. India's Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde toldreporters Saturday thatthe government would work toward increasing punishment in "rarest of the rare" rape cases. But pressed on whetherthe administration wouldagree to demands for death by hanging in such instances, he said:"We'll have to see in what way it (the rape sentencing) can be enhanced." Shinde said the government was pushing for a speedy trial for the attack. Authorities are also taking a number of steps to improve security for women in New Delhi, particularly on public transport, he said. "(The) government shares the widespread concern and support that has been expressed throughout society for the girl who has so suffered. Government also respects the right of legitimate protest," he said. "At the same time, thereis need to exercise calm at this juncture and for everyone to work together to improve the safety and security environment." In the meantime, the victim has been promised the best possible medical care, Shinde said. A physician described the woman's condition Saturday as better thana day earlier, but said there was still a risk of infection. She is receiving psychological as well as medical care,he said.

Angry protesters hurled rocks at the Tunisian president and MP speaker in Sidi Bouzid

Angry protesters have hurled rocks at the Tunisian president and parliamentary speaker in Sidi Bouzid, the cradle of the revolution that erupted in the north African country two years ago. The incident began after a speech by President Moncef Marzouki in the central Tunisian town, where celebrations are taking placeon Monday to mark the anniversary of the revolution. Mustapha Ben Jaafar, the parliamentary speaker, was about to address the crowd when the violence began. Security forces swiftly evacuated the two men to the regional government headquarters, the AFP news agency reported. The protesters invaded the square where the head of state had been addressing the crowd, shouting "the people want the fall of the government". Growing anger The police held back, after violent clashes over the past few months, which haveoften followed attempts to disperse protesters angry over the government's failure to improve living conditions in the poor region. Clashes and strikes have multiplied across Tunisia in the run-up to the second anniversary of the start of Tunisia's revolution. When the president took to the podium on Monday, manyin the crowd of around 5,000started shouting "Get out! Get out!" - one of the rallying cries of the revolution that toppled the regime of former dictator Zine El Abedine Ben Ali. Marzouki promised economic progress within six months to the people of Sidi Bouzid, where poverty and unemployment were key factors behind the uprising that began there on December 17, 2010, after Muhammad Bouazizi a street vendor set himself on fire in protest at police harassment. "I understand this legitimate anger. But the government has diagnosed the problem. In six months, a stable government will be in place and will provide the remedy to heal the country's problems," said the president, who was jeered by the crowd. "For the first time, we have a government which is not stealing from the people," hesaid. Marzouki had been heckled earlier in the morning, when he visited the grave of Bouazizi.

MY GLOBE OF NEWS: Kienappers demanded Nigeria's finance minister resignation.

MY GLOBE OF NEWS: Kienappers demanded Nigeria's finance minister resignation.

Kidnappers demanded Nigeria's finance resignation.

Nigeria's Finance Minister Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala says her mother's kidnappers demanded her resignation. In her first public commentssince her 82-year-old mother's release, Mrs Okonjo-Iweala said the kidnappers mentioned her battle against a multi-billion dollar fuel scam. Kamene Okonjo was freed on Friday after gunmen held her for five days. Mrs Okonjo-Iweala pusheda government policy to endfuel subsidies in January, sparking a nationwide strike. The government then agreed to partially restorethe subsidy. Kidnapping is common in southern Nigeria, where it is a lucrative criminal enterprise. 'No backing down' She said her mother, a retired professor, was held without food or water. "The kidnappers spent much of the time harassingher. They told her that I must get on the radio and television and announce my resignation," Mrs Okonjo-Iweala said in a statement. "When she asked why, they told her it was because I did not pay oil subsidy money." We cannot and we will not pay [for fraudulent claims] Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Nigeria's Finance Minister Earlier this year, a parliamentary investigationfound that a scam linked tothe subsidy cost the country $6.8bn (£4bn). Kamene Okonjo was kidnapped from her home in southern Nigeria's Delta state on 9 December. On Friday, officials said she had been released and that her abductors had dropped her off near her home. It is not clear whether a ransom was paid to secureher release. Mrs Okonjo-Iweala, 58, didnot answer any questions after making her statement. She is an internationally respected economist who has led a high-profile campaign to clean up corruption in Nigeria. The finance minister said the kidnapping would not change the policy of President Goodluck Jonathan's government. "For marketers whose transactions are proven tobe fraudulent, the position of the Jonathan government is also clear: We cannot and we will not pay," she said. "We will not back down on this. We will continue to stand firm." Last week, finance ministryspokesman Paul Nwabuikwu said that Mrs Okonjo-Iweala had been threatened recently. Officials said Kamene Okonjo had probably been released because her abductors were under pressure, following a series of raids by Nigeria's security forces tohunt them down.

Gayism is matching to legalism in Uganda.

Uganda's president has said gay people should not be killed orpersecuted, as MPs continue to consider a controversial Anti-Homosexuality Bill. In his first public commentson the bill for some time, President Yoweri Musevenialso said that homosexuality should not be promoted. The original version of thebill stipulated the death penalty for some homosexual acts but this has reportedly been dropped. Homosexual acts are illegalin Uganda. The BBC's Catherine Byaruhanga says the government has always stressed that the bill was introduced by an individualMP and was not official policy. In his latest comments at the swearing in of a new head of the Anglican Church of Uganda, the president was careful to neither condemn the bill nor openly support it, our correspondent says. The president said: "If there are some homosexuals, we shall not kill or persecute them but there should be no promotion of homosexuality. "We cannot accept promotion of homosexuality as if it is a good thing." Ministers have warned MPs that passing the bill would have implications forforeign relations. It has been condemned by Western donors, who have suggested that aid could be cut if it is passed. Speaker of parliament Rebecca Kadaga recently said the bill would be passed as a "Christmas gift" to its advocates. I have been married to my wifefor 39 years, but I have never kissed her in public President Museveni However, parliament has adjourned until January without voting on it. Even if MPs do approve the bill, Mr Museveni wouldhave to sign it before it takes effect. Some African opponents of homosexuality have said itwas introduced to the continent by European colonisers. However, Mr Museveni said he knew of traditional kings and chiefs who practised homosexuality, but that they did it in secret and did not promoteit. He said he had told the US ambassador to Kampala that all forms of sex were kept private in Africa, unlike in Western societies. Ugandan gay people often fear living openly "I told him that I have beenmarried to my wife for 39 years, but I have never kissed her in public and in my house before the children," the New Vision newspaper quoted him as saying at the same church ceremony. "If I did it, I would lose elections and you know I am not about to accept thatidea of losing elections." Last month, MP Medard Segona told the BBC that the provision for the deathpenalty had been dropped. In its original form, those convicted of "aggravated homosexuality", defined aswhen one of the participants is a minor, HIV-positive, disabled or a"serial offender", faced the death penalty. Such offences would now be punished with life imprisonment, it is understood
