Ethiopian police teargas protesters in Amhara - local party official

ADDIS ABABA (Reuters) - Police teargassed hundreds of protesters outside a court in Ethiopia’s northern city of Bahir Dar on Tuesday, a local party official and an eyewitness said, reflecting public tensions over high profile violence that left dozens dead there in June.

The man, who requested anonymity for fear of reprisals, told Reuters the protesters were chanting demands that the government reveal "the truth" over the killings described by the government as a regional coup attempt.
