Reports from Kabul say up to 4,000 people marched in Kabul today -- most of them ethnic Hazaras.
At least 1,000 others demonstrated for a second day today in Mazar-e Sharif, blocking a highway through the northern city. Ramazan was killed in a drive-by shooting on 27 September in Mazar-e Sharif -- capital of Balkh Province.
Protesters in both cities are demanding the resignation of Balkh's Governor Atta Mohammad. They accuse the governor of plotting the attack against Ramazan, who belonged to a minority Shi'a Muslim faction called Wahdat.
