Hundreds of protesters remained in the square on Sunday and organisers said they would not leave until more of their demands are met.

Armed men have opened fire and hurled a grenade into a crowded nightclub in the Mexican city of Guadalajara, killing six people and wounding at least 37.
The grenade was thrown at the porch of the bar in Mexico's second most populous city, police said on Saturday.
Three women and three men were killed in the attack and more than 20 people were wounded. The assailants fled in several cars.
This is the second grenade attack on a Guadalajara bar in less than a month: On January 16 an argument between gunmen and musicians ended in a blast that killed two people.

Spaniard Alvaro Quiros fired a hole-in-one to win the Dubai Desert Classic by one stroke on 11 under.
Quiros aced the par-three 11th, only three holes after a triple-bogey seven at the eighth, to finish ahead of James Kingston and Anders Hansen.
Three successive bogeys ended joint overnight leader Rory McIlroy's hopes at six under while world number one Lee Westwood finished a shot behind.
A triple-bogey seven on the 18th saw Tiger Woods slip down the leaderboard.

Tropical Cyclone Bingiza east of northern Madagascar early on February 10 [Joint Typhoon Warning Center
Tropical Cyclone Bingiza is creeping ever closer. For the last few days it has been swirling a few hundred kilometers off-shore, with just the outer fringes of the storm thrown westwards towards the island.
These outer bands have already brought a lot of rain, but the centre of the storm where the worst of the weather is, has not reached Madagascar yet.
Currently the eye of the storm has sustained winds of nearly 160kph, and gust of 195kph. This makes it the equivalent of a category 2 hurricane, but the storm is still expected to strengthen as it creeps slowly westwards.
