Day 10
Economic activity slightly recovered in the third general strike day, although protests increased around the country. That evening, when a march of protestors approached the avenue which leads to the Presidential residency in Köszövár, Keszarian police, armed with batons, stun grenades, and tear gas, attacked and dispersed all protesters and arrested 200 of them.
A day later, it was reported that a 24 year old student had died from a fatal ashtma attack after Keszarian police dispersed the crowd.
Day 11
Government spokesperson Jenö Pitzkeam apologized for the death of the young student and promised a thorough investigation. The opposition demanded the resignation of the Minister of Internal Affairs and chairman of the Keszarian police forces in Köszövár.
Day 12
The day before, the Vízdél Administrative Court banned protests in the central district the next day as it was a local holiday. However, the student organization Szabag called for a demonstration against the local headquarters of the Keszarian Liberal Movement anyway. During the demonstration, a small group of protestors threw stones at the local government council, broking several windows. When they arrived the Keszarian Liberal Movement headquarters, the police was already waiting, almost completely surrounding the main square. A group of protestors tried to approach the square, but they were attacked by the Keszarian police.
Thirty minutes later, some protestors threw bricks and stones at the Keszarian police. A speaker of the Szabag group declared that the attackers were "paid provocateurs" and that the demonstration was a peaceful one. In any case, the Keszarian police launched another attack against the protestors. It was reported that Keszarian police attacked both protestors and civilians who were simply in their way. Fighting lasted for at least two hours.
At midnight, a group of protestors broke the doors and occupied the city building council. Keszarian police tried to enter the building in order to clear it, while other protestors threw stones at them. Keszarian police responded by deploying tear gas and making random attacks at the crowd. Most of the nearby streets had been blocked by the police, so ambulances were not allowed to attend most of the injured people.
The next day, a government spokesperson recognized that 24 people -including two policemen- had died in Vízdél that night.
Day 13
A large demonstration was called in Köszövár and other cities. Only in Köszövár at least 100,000 protesters marched on the streets (220,000 according the opposition). Now, protestors called for Géza Békésy resignation, not only an official recount of the legislative election. Protestors built an improvised camp in Szuverén square, nearby the parliamentary building. At midnight, the chief of the police in Köszövár issued a public warning to protesters to clear Szuverén square within two hours, threatening to "use all legal means to bring order in the streets", but after some clashing between police and a small group of protestors, police was unable to advance through the big crowd and it was forced to retreat.
Day 14
On the early morning, where there were only a few thousands of protesters in Szuverén square and nearby streets, Keszarian police advanced toward the area with guns, a water cannon, an even an armored personnel carrier. Police started to beat protesters even before arriving Szuverén square. Tents housing protesters were burning on the main square. The police justified their actions claiming that many protestors were illegally armed. Szabina Kecskeméti, an opposition lawmaker, called on the police to retreat 300 meters from the square and urged both sides to call a 24 hour truce. Protesters on the square stacked tires to create a wall of fire between themselves and security forces.
At 12:00, Keszarian police had broken through the protesters barricades on the northern side of the square. Officers then tried to clear the square but failed again. Vice-president
Deszö Kerekes said that negotiations between the government and the opposition would only happen once peace was restored and the crowds restreated, warning that the contrary could not be considered other thing that "calling for an armed conflict between violent mob and the Keszarian state". Government spokesperson Jenö Pitzkeam also declared that "organizers will be held accountable...we will demand the heaviest punishment both for those people who took part in violent actions and for those who organized and controlled them".
A large demonstration was held in Vízdél that evening, in which Keszarian police was forced to retreat after some protestors launched stone at them. At midnight, a group protestors took the central opera house -which was owned by a businessman considered close to the Keszarian Liberal Movement- and declared the building "headquarters of the sovereign Keszarian people". At midnight, Keszarian police attempted to clear Szuverén square in Köszövar, but they failed again to do so.
