United Nation peacekeeping soldiers detain supporters of the Fretilin party in Dili, 06 August 2007, after they set fires on the streets in protest of East Timor's President Jose Ramos-Horta's announcement that former president Xanana Gusmao will be country's next prime minister. The independence hero Gusmao is to be appointed prime minister of East Timor this week and will form a government following inconclusive polls in June, President Jose Ramos-Horta said. The decision is likely to anger supporters of Gusmao's long-time arch rival, the ex-prime minister Mari Alkatiri, who said at his residence earlier that he had been told of the decision and claimed such a government would be "illegal."
