(Reuters) - Hundreds of protesters gathered in Ulan Bator's central Sukhbatar Square Thursday to demand the resignation of Mongolia's health minister for failing to curtail the spread of the H1N1 strain of influenza.
The first demonstration in the heart of the capital since post-election riots in July 2008 ended peacefully, but protesters warned of further unrest if the government did not meet their demands by April 19.

The report also failed to mention that the protesters demanded a resignation of another minister, Tsendiin Nyamdorj. The Minister of Justice and Home Affairs failed to take responsibility for many shootings and killings at border units during his term at the office.
