Geneva police are facing down criticism for not breaking up an illegal demonstration on Saturday evening.

About 50 had gathered around 8.30pm as part of a feminist and anti-racist rally that started on the Plainpalais and ended up in the Grottes district. 
Police decided not to intervene – citing a policy of proportionality. But a spokesman says several people have been identified and there will be consequences.
