Newspapers report on events on 16 March - unofficial commemoration day of Latvian WWII legionaries. As planned, several ultra-right wing organisations hold two commemorative processions, while the Latvian Anti-Fascistic Committee held an anti-fascistic meeting in the centre of Riga. All events were massively observed and controlled by police and security forces. The police detained 12 persons for small administrative violations. No serious conflicts were registered.
