Turkish riot police detain a Kurdish demonstrator in Istanbul, Turkey, Wednesday, March 21, 2007. Authorities increased security around the country for Wednesday's Nowruz festival and warned they would not tolerate illegal demonstrations. But protesters carried pictures of rebel leader Abdullah Ocalan and flags of his banned separatist Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK, despite laws banning rebel propaganda. Police fired tear gas to disperse a group who threw stones at police at the end of festivities in Istanbul and detained more than 20 people. (AP Photo/Murad Sezer)
