The police and plainclothes forces arrived at the park at around 3 PM, according to one protester, and dispersed the crowd after arresting a number of the participants. "We were about 70 people and we were walking toward the park pool to take a picture with the hope that the new year will prove the government to be more active in upholding animal rights, but that's when the plainclothes people came and began attacking us and forced some people into a big white van and drove off," the source reports.
