At least dozen injured in clashes between police, protesters in Argentina
At least nine civilians and three police officers were wounded in clashes in the Argentinian city of San Salvador de Jujuy, media report.
The clashes occurred on Wednesday near the Jujuy Federal Court building, where the verdict against Milagro Sala, a leader of the Tupac Amaru neighborhood association, part of the Association of State Workers of Jujuy, was supposed to be announced, El Telegrafo said.

​​People were demonstrating in support of Sala in front of the court building.

Sala was arrested in January over alleged incitement to commit crimes and prepare riots. According to El Telegrafo, because witnesses were not present to testify on Wednesday, the announcement of the verdict could be made later this month.
