Protesters attack on Yoga Day program in Maldives

Male: Police in the Maldives used tear gas and pepper spray to control a crowd of people who disrupted a yoga event organized by the Indian High Commission or embassy in the capital Male on Tuesday morning, an organizer said.
Crowds stormed a stadium where more than 150 people, including diplomats and government officials, were taking part in an event celebrating International Day of Yoga, attacking participants and damaging property, among the organizers. One, who did not wish to be named because he was not authorized to speak with the media, told Reuters.
