After the successful march of June 11, the legalistic demonstrators were firmly expected by the police forces on the place of democracy.

The legalistic pull back again into Magro

 

They were several thousands on the eve to descend in the street to join the place of democracy, in the center of Antananarivo. Surprised, the police forces let them in since the demonstrators provided a letter from the City Council of Antananarivo, specifying that the place of democracy was available. A gathering took place then.  

 

The legalistic demonstrators intended to come back on the same place. They finally gave in to the putsch’s regime’s determination to forbid all political demonstration on the public place. Something more than a simple letter from the Council, an authorization from police forces at least would be needed to demonstrate on a public place. Therefore The police forces prevented access to the legalistic demonstrators to the Place of democracy. The supporters of Marc Ravalomanana didn’t insist this time. In spite of all that, some fume grenades have been used to disperse the crowd. 

 

Without looking for trouble, the demonstrators left the center of the capital to pull back as usual on the Magro private Place, in Ankorondrano, location of the support rally for Marc Ravalomanana. 

 

In the same way in Antsirabe, the second city of Madagascar, 170 km away to the south of the capital, the legalistic demonstrators had to do with the Magro Place to gather. All other places are classified as «red zones” said a legalistic militant. The actors of the Coup of March clearly intend to remain empowered as long as they want. They hardly hesitate to use strength to subdue the legalistic movement which supports the president in exile.
