Police in Kazakhstan have arrested 200 more people in the country's biggest city, the interior ministry said on Tuesday, amid continuing protests against what many see as a rigged presidential election, Al Jazeera reports.
The 200 people detained in Almaty on Monday came in addition to 500 others who were held a day earlier over protests against a snap vote that saw a landslide victory for Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, the hand-picked successor of longtime leader Nursultan Nazarbayev.
