Thousands of Romanians have gathered in the capital, Bucharest, and in large cities across the country for a fourth consecutive day of growing protests.

The marches started out against a controversial healthcare reform bill and widened to include anger over government austerity measures.

Police have fired tear gas to disperse the crowds, and dozens of people have been arrested in a bid to quell the dissent.
Al Jazeera's Nazanin Sadri reports.

  • jos Basescu bagamias pl in familia lui

  • I'm Romanian. We live an authoritarian regime. Even the freedom of speech has been taken away from us. I protested in Cluj Napoca, and some fellow protesters were picked up by the police just because of a simple banner. At night, when most of the protesters go home and the crowd is greatly diminished, the authorities grow balls are abusing the protesters under the command of the government. That's when they only act, they're afraid of the big crowd.
