BBC: Locals expel Uzbek town leaders

[allemand]

Local residents have seized control of Karasu, a border town in eastern Uzbekistan, driving out representatives of the central government.
Angry crowds set government buildings alight and attacked the mayor.

The uprising follows the bloody suppression of a demonstration in the nearby city of Andijan on Friday.

The BBC's Ian MacWilliam says this is exactly the kind of local rebellion the Uzbek government hoped to prevent by a show of force in Andijan.
