The Summer of the Thousands Flowers
#2
Day 3

In Vízdél, protesters were dispersed violently by the Keszarian police. This was only partially successful, as the opposition called another protests on the evening which gathered -according the opposition own estimates- more than 50,000 people. On the night of Ochtyr 26 at midnight, armed with batons, stun grenades and tear gas, police attacked and dispersed all protesters from the center. The police attacked not only the protestors but also other civilians, even severely harming a 11-year old girl. More than 57 people were reportedly injured,while more than 200 hundred people were arrested only in Vízdél. Some activists found protection in Sentric churches nearby.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs justified the police raid by accused them of throwing stone and burning cars, which the opposition called a lie. In an official statement, Vízdél local government confirmed that 20 people were hospitalized, and 6 policemen were also injured.


Day 4

A large demonstration in Köszövár witnessed, according to some estimated, at least 100,000 marching peacefully. Oppostion candidate Szabina Kecskeméti called for the immediate resignation of the Minister of Internal Affair and a judiciary investigation about police violence the previous day in Vízdél.

That evening, National Election Commission officially certified the Keszarian Liberal Movement as the winner of the legislative election, with 42.9% of the vote, and 160 of 299 MPs, a figure slightly lower than the official result three days ago and making Békésy’s party to lose his 2/3 majority, but nevertheless giving a clear majority in the Lower House.

Lázár Kádár, chairman of the Civic Democratic Party, spoke to supporters in Szabadság Square, urguing them to begin a series of mass protests with the intent to force the government to concede defeat.
