"Kurds fight running battles with Turkish police
By SELCAN HACAOGLU (AP) – 2 hours ago
ANKARA, Turkey — Angry Kurds battled Turkish police with rocks and firebombs Saturday to protest a decision by the country's top court to shut down a pro-Kurdish political party on charges of ties to militants.
The party's lawmakers said they would boycott parliament.
The party was banned Friday, a day after the main Kurdish rebel group claimed responsibility for killing seven Turkish soldiers in an ambush in central Turkey, an attack that outraged the country."
