Blocking more student protests in Papua New Guinea

The students want Prime Minister Peter O’Neill to stand down to answer corruption allegations, which he denies.

The University of Papua New Guinea has obtained an injunction to stop protests after a number of people were hurt when a demonstration turned violent.

Mr O’Neill is also facing a possible no-confidence motion in parliament.

Police opened fire as students were trying to march from their campus in the capital, Port Moresby, towards parliament.

Police say 23 people were hurt.
