Angolan police arrest seven at youth protest against president

Angolan police said on Thursday they have detained seven people at a protest in Luanda by a youth movement calling for President Jose Eduardo dos Santos to quit after 34 years in power, but said they would not be charged.

Police spokesman Aristofanes dos Santos said the detentions followed "minor disturbances" and the youths' identities would be registered but they would be released, possibly on Thursday.
