Macedonians have been protesting daily throughout the month of June 2011 against the police cover-up of a murder of a man during street celebrations for the re-election victory of Macedonia's ruling party, the VMRO-DPMNE. Martin Neshkovski, 22, was beaten to death early on the morning of June 6, in the main square of Skopje, the capital city. Despite the presence of dozens of witnesses, authorities initially denied any knowledge of the murder. The protesters are demanding full disclosure of all aspects of the crime and the alleged cover-up.
