notes: On 26 August 2020, hundreds of residents demonstrated for the second day in a row, in Monrovia city (Greater Monrovia, Montserrado) to denounce increasing cases of rape on young children, and to call on the Government to strengthen the justice system that will allow rape survivors to get justice. A group of alleged supporters of Monrovia city Mayor on board of 3 cars disrupted the demonstration forcing their way through a blockade set up by the demonstrators in front of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Mayor denied being associated with that action. [size=hundreds]
