Some 150 followers of ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya blocked on Thursday morning a street in the north of Tegucigalpa, to protests against the obstructions of the negotiations aimed to restore Zelaya in charge.
"Zelaya's supporters went to Norte Boulevard, without producing disturbs and under police vigilance," Police sheriff Miguel Perez told the press.
"The police set a security operative for the followers of the former president (Zelaya) could protest without generating chaos," Perez, in charge of the police operative said.
"There is not any kind of restriction; the police only is establishing a security operative, for them (the protestors) and for the people transiting this zone," Perez said.
The protest was carried after the negotiations, between Zelaya's delegation and the de facto government, to restitute Zelaya in power were suspended on Monday.
On Wednesday, Honduran police announced restrictions on protests in an effort to quell rallies in favor of Zelaya. They said that protests must be authorized by the government 24 hours in advance.
