Hello and welcome to world news today. More than 1,000 people have been arrested in moscow, during unauthorised protests against the banning of many opposition candidates from local elections. There were scuffles as police dispersed groups of protesters, who responded with anti putin chants. The Authorities Say around 30 candidates failed to collect enough valid signatures, but the barred candidates say theyve been blocked for political reasons. From moscow, 0leg boldyrev reports. Police warned people from moscow not to come out for this unsanctioned protest but a few thousand came out anyway and soon they paid for it by being dragged into custody. The arrests were met with defiance. The police are trying to push back the protesters, who came here because the candidates they support were not allowed to participate in elections. We dont know how many people came to protest but plenty of people are angry that the candidates theyve been supporting were denied the chance to participate in
