Chinese parents staged a protest on Sunday after six pupils were killed in a stampede at a primary school, as concerns over child safety mount. AFP photos show riot police confronting dozens of parents, many of them wailing with grief as they clutched photographs of their children, near Mingtong Primary School in Kunming, capital of the south-western province of Yunnan.
The group of parents held a banner saying "The killers should be severy punished" as they marched down the street, appearing to clash with a row of police who formed a line.
State news agency Xinhua said seven people had been suspended or removed from their posts following Friday's accident, which left 26 other children injured.
