MADRID - Topless female activists on Sunday interrupted a demonstration in Madrid commemorating the legacy of Spain’s former dictator Francisco Franco, 44 years after his death.
Hundreds of Franco supporters turned out for the march, which is held around Nov. 20 every year to mark the anniversary of the dictator’s death. Some demonstrators carried flags with Francoist icons and held an arm aloft in the fascist salute. In October, Spanish authorities transferred the dictator’s remains from a lavish state mausoleum outside Madrid where he was buried in 1975 to a private cemetery, provoking strong reactions from across the political spectrum.Acting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez’s Socialist party had long campaigned to remove Franco’s body from the mausoleum, arguing it would help bolster Spain’s democratic credentials.
