MOSCOW, January 12 (RIA Novosti) - Representatives of the Mongolian opposition have captured the headquarters of the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party (MPRP), one of the country's leading parties, in Ulan Bator, a party activist said Thursday.
"Representatives of two public movements, Civil Will and For Drastic Reform, seized the headquarters of the MPRP and have been holding the building for more than three hours," said Dashdorzhin Zorigt, leader of the party's youth organization.
He said that about 2,000 people were in and around the building.
The MPRP, which was formerly the country's communist party and which has formed most of Mongolia's governments since the move to democracy in 1990, holds a majority of the seats in the Great State Hural, the country's parliament.
