Now Lebanon - ISF re-opens Bekaa road blocked by Roumieh-related protest - April 6, 2011

Internal Security Forces re-opened a road in the Bekaa after the families of the Roumieh Prison’s inmates blocked it earlier on Wednesday.
NOW Lebanon’s correspondent reported that family members of the inmates had blocked the Chtoura-Taalabaya road with flaming tires “in solidarity with the Roumieh inmates.”
The protest was dispersed and the road was re-opened, he added.
Security forces stormed Roumieh Prison on Tuesday after talks failed to secure the release of three guards detained by inmates who have been demanding an amnesty and better conditions.
