Police have clashed with protesters in the Indonesian capital of Jakarta as tens of thousands of people gathered in protest of the government's attempt to reverse a constitutional court ruling.
Scenes of chaos have unfolded outside parliament as a handful of protesters were seen attempting to tear down its gates while others shouted for calm.
Police also clashed with protesters who gathered in other major cities.
Observers say the power struggle between Indonesia's parliament which is dominated by the president's supporters and the country's constitutional court could precipitate a political crisis.
