Ukraine detains dozens:

-

Several dozen far-right activists in Ukraine have been detained after clashes with police in the capital of Kiev.

Far-right activists on Saturday tried to storm a police station in Kiev after several others were detained at a campaign event for presidenti­al candidate Yulia Tymoshenko. The activists were demanding justice in the killing of an anti-corruption activist. They suspect that a member of Tymoshenko’s party was involved in the slaying.

The National Police said late Saturday that it had detained 40 people and opened three criminal cases investigat­ing violence against law enforcemen­t officers. (AP)
