The former President of transition period Roza Otunbayeva and ex-prosecutor general Aida Salyanova spoke in front of the protesters - supporters of Omurbek Tekebayev.

They talked about the fact that the government has arranged the persecution of political opponents. They also called on the authorities to make a fair judgment on Omurbek Tekebayev's case.

 « There is a political confrontation now. The court must make a fair decision. We hope that Tekebayev will be released. Only in such case we will be able to hold fair presidential elections," Roza Otunbayeva said.

Note, the rally is continuing for more than three hours. However, the number of protesters doesn’t reduce.
