Thousands Attend Chokri Belaid's Funeral

Tunisian opposition leader was killed on Wednesday

Tens of thousands of angry Tunisians turned out Friday at the funeral of assassinated secular opposition leader Chokri Belaid.

They chanted anti-Islamist slogans as they surged around an open army truck carrying Belaid's coffin, draped in a red-and-white Tunisian flag.

"Belaid, rest in peace, we will continue the struggle," they chanted, holding portraits of Belaid.
