Addis Ababa, Nov 13, SPA -- Ethiopia has released another 1,721 people detained in a massive round-up during clashes between police and protesters earlier this month which left at least 42 people dead, state television has said. The latest release brings to 4,435 those freed from jail in recent days after the crackdown by Prime Minister Meles Zenawi's government on unrest over the disputed May 15 election. "Those who have been released from detention are those who were found not to have been involved in the rioting," state TV said late on Saturday, quoting police. --SPA 1152 Local Time 0852 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/302250
