Police in Georgia have clashed with demonstrators in the centre of the capital Tbilisi protesting against last month's disputed election which they say was stolen by the government.
The protesters had set up tents and barriers at a major junction near Tbilisi State University and security and riot police detained a number of people as they moved in to clear the area.
Georgia's pro-Western opposition accuses the ruling Georgian Dream (GD) party of using voter intimidation and fraud to win last month’s parliamentary elections.
Georgian Dream denies rigging the vote. The result has been rubber-stamped by the central election commission even though it was not corroborated by Western polling groups.
