The Bucharest police yesterday dispersed a demonstration of Roumanian students who demanded the release of the students convicted recently to prison terms for participation in the anti-Jewish riots at Oradeamare last December.
The group, consisting of 150 students, assembled before the house of the Dean of the University of Bucharest, demonstrating noisily. Twenty of the students were arrested.
