Ethiopia's ruling party celebrates victory |
||
|
rally in the capital Tuesday to celebrate its victory in national elections, but a U.S. rights group claimed the weekend ballot was corrupted by irregularities.
Hundreds of blue-uniformed federal police stood guard as supporters of the ruling party gathered in the city's central parade grounds. Workers had constructed a platform overlooking the grounds, and were installing a glass box — possibly made of bulletproof glass for an important person. It was not known whether Prime Minister Meles Zenawi would speak at the rally. |
