Housing Ministry workers attempt to evict People’s Parliament

Members of the People’s Parliament addressing the media yesterday.

Housing and Water Ministry workers yesterday tried to evict the People’s Parliament movement from occupying the Parliament Square along High Street, removing placards, banners and posters  that were reclaimed within minutes and replaced at the site.

“We are astounded by the high-handed manner of the Ministry of Housing and Water, whose Minister [Irfaan Ali] had been all over the airwaves making false claims against the People’s Parliament. Their conduct, in coming at 4 o’clock to intimidate and harass citizens is reminiscent of the excess of the worst forms of dictatorship,” Tory Kellman,
