Protect and safeguard or beat and shout? (part 2)

And here is more footage from protests that took place today in Azerbaijan. 


The second guy police arrested was begging to release his arm as it was hurting. An older woman was refusing to get into the car. The man in the tie said he was crossing the street and when the police shut the door he was saying that his wife was waiting just there for him. The last two women talking to the cameras were human rights advocates- Novella Jafaroglu and Saida Gocamanli. The police officer standing behind them quickly walked up to them asking for their IDs. 

And this is the democracy and freedom we hear government officials talk about all the time.
