University students fire homemade mortars
against the National Police headquarters, at the Sun Square in
Managua, Nicaragua, Tuesday, May 18, 2004. Clashes between
students and the police continued on the second day of
protests against the government, who was ordered to assign 6%
of the national budget to universities by the Supreme Court of
Justice, but said it did not have the funds to comply. One
Policeman was shot dead and at least 46 people, students and
policemen, were injured. Many arrests were made. (AFP)
