Los Angeles Police shoot with rubber bullets at protesters
Los Angeles, June 10 (UNI ) Following noise grenades, Los Angeles police began shooting rubber bullets at the most active protesters, a RIA Novosti correspondent reported. Earlier, the correspondent reported that security forces used flash-bang grenades. Later, in an attempt to disperse the crowd, law enforcement officers used rubber bullets — primarily at those who threw various objects at them. The crowd, however, began to scatter along the streets of the city center. The unrest began on June 7 after a raid by the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) service in downtown Los Angeles, where a mass operation was conducted to identify undocumented immigrants. The clashes with protesters came amid reports of potential cuts to federal funding for the state. The following day, the White House announced that 2,000 National Guard troops would be deployed to the city. Los Angeles County officials later said they had not requested the National Guard and stressed that the decision to deploy it was made without consulting local officials. It became a public point of contention between the Republican White House and the state's Democratic leadership. UNI SPUTNIK ARN

We've pushed back 330 illegal foreigners, none of them has returned: Assam CM
Guwahati, June 9 (UNI) Iterating the BJP-led Assam government's stern stand on Bangladeshi citizens entering or living in India illegally, state Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Monday informed the Assembly that the government has pushed back almost 330 such unauthorised foreigners, and none of them has returned. 'It is not possible for them to return, and we are firm on this. And this pushback will be intensified, it will be expedited. The way illegal immigrants have entered the state from Bangladesh and Pakistan, we have to be more proactive to keep the state safe," said Sarma. The Chief Minister was replying to a demand by opposition members, including Congress' Debabrata Saikia and AIUDF's Ashraful Hussain to discuss on the issue of National Register of Citizens (NRC). While raising the issue, Saikia said that while the government has claimed to have pushed back illegal foreigners, some of them again entered Assam, making the government's stand vague on the issue. The Chief Minister further informed the House that the state government has also decided to reinforce the Illegal (Expulsion from Assam) Act 1950. "Under the Illegal Expulsion Act 1950, the District Commissioner, if he is reasonably convinced that a certain individual is a foreigner, can remove that individual without referring a case to the Tribunal," he said. The Chief Minister said the government has taken inspiration from former Chief Minister Bimala Prasad Chaliha, who had pushed back illegal immigrants. 'We are taking inspiration from the good works of the Congress,' he said while referring to Chaliha, who was a Congress Chief Minister. "There are two ways to identify illegal immigrants in Assam — one is the Tribunal and the other is the Illegal Expulsion Act 1950. There the word 'push back'is not there, but 'remove' is there," he added Expressing his concern over the issue, the Chief Minister further said that the government has found out almost 2600 Facebook accounts, which were operated from Islamabad, Riyadh and Saudi Arab. "They don't even welcome Rahul Gandhi, but welcome one particular individual from Assam. And I have documents, within the next ten to 12 days I'll provide some information about such accounts to the press,' he said. 'These accounts post only on two occasion, either on Palestine or on Assam, nothing else. I am not saying that the Muslims of Assam are not indigenous. Indigenous is a secular definition. ... There is a big conspiracy and we must resist it through the process of law,' he added. UNI ANP SSP
