The pressure on Geneva authorities over Sunday's anti-G7 protest is growing, with the No-G7 coalition now formally calling for the resignations of cantonal minister Carole-Anne Kast and prosecutor general Olivier Jornot.
The coalition accuses police of carrying out indiscriminate arrests by kettling more than 540 people at the end of the march.
It also alleges censorship after speeches were cancelled, and stands in solidarity with a man it says was severely beaten by plain-clothes officers — an incident now being investigated by internal police affairs.
Carole-Anne Kast is defending the police response, citing the roughly 600 protesters who disrupted the march, but she says a review is under way.
