Protests outside the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts on Monday become violent as police try to regain control during Opposition Leader Azruddin Mohamed’s court appearance. Multiple accounts describe demonstrators breaching or pushing down police barricades, followed by police dispersal efforts that include tear gas and rubber pellets.

Coverage also links the court-area unrest to wider disorder in the city. One report says fires were set along roadways and that the situation deteriorates as police prepare to return Mohamed to Lusignan Prison. Another account notes that protesters later moved toward Stabroek Market, where a small fire is observed at the front of the building.

The outlets also differ in what they emphasise about context and responsibility. One highlights the tone of the events, contrasting an initially orderly demonstration with later violence. Another stresses that the protest was called by family members and WIN parliamentary team members, while police acknowledge freedom of expression but warn against unlawful acts.
