Hojs: Police ordered Yellow Jackets removal before call from protest organisers

Ljubljana, 6 July - Interior Minister Aleš Hojs told MPs on Monday he was not familiar with the police report on the 25 June rally of anti-government protestors in Ljubljana. But from what he has heard, he believes police ordered action against a Yellow Jackets group a few seconds before the protest's organisers had urged them to remove the group from the event.
