After killing two students on the 27th of April by using life ammunition to shoot at peacefully demonstrating student, despite the fact that the law in this country does not permit the using of life ammunition to restore order, the police fired life ammunition yesterday on students again. This time 1person was killed and 6 others seriously injured.

This time the students were having a sit-in strike as they have been having since the 26th May. Then the governor showed-up with police officers and told the students they most go to class right away. When the students refused the governor ordered the cobs to disperse the students. The police started firing tear gas and some other chemicals in special canisters. Then water canons and later they started firing grenades at the students who were responding with stones. In the end the police started using life ammunition to shoot at the students.
