Earlier in the week, several lawmakers of the ruling National Democratic Party (NDP) called on police to shoot protesters rather than disperse them with water canons. Protesters were demanding an end to emergency law, which has been in place since 1981. The law allows for indefinite detention, prohibits gatherings of more than five people,allows the trial of civilians in military courts.  EPA/MOHAMED OMAR
