Saigon Buddhist Institute siege marks Ky year in power
Riot police sealed Saigon's Buddhist Institute after a Buddhist mob killed a policeman with his own gun and beat another. Premier Ky, appearing at a garden party, said dissidents in Hue would be cleaned up soon and that Buddhist protests were nothing but children led by monks. The incident followed U S B 52 raids marking one year of Ky's military government amid dwindling ground combat. A 16 year old girl died after self immolation in the institute compound, bringing self immolations to ten since May 29.
