Police used batons to break up a pro-democracy demonstration in the Moroccan city, injuring dozens
Police broke up a demonstration in the city of Casablanca, injuring dozens of people, while armoured cars blocked streets to stop groups gathering.
The protest was one of a series across Morocco since February to demand freedoms, jobs and better conditions.
A similar event in the city of Sale was also hit by violence. There were no official reports of injured.
Authorities have shown little tolerance for the demonstrations, which come as King Mohammed VI announced a reform process in March, and a minister said there were counter-protests in Casablanca, the capital Rabat, and Fez by citizens angry at damage to the economy caused by unrest.
