Death of Protester Angers Turks

Protesters have clashed with police over the death of a 22-year-old demonstrator in the southern Turkish city of Antakya.

Ahmet Atakan died late on Monday evening, with officials saying his death was the result of a fall.

Activist groups also called for protests in other Turkish cities, including Istanbul.

Sporadic anti-government protests have continued in Turkish cities since a wave of demonstrations in the summer.
