	Three News March 8 2007; 22:31 Effigy burned as protesters march in aid of sex abuse victims Protesters came face to face with police in Wellington this evening, during a march in aid of rape and sex abuse victims. Around 200 mostly women marched through the city enroute to the High Court. They're a backlash from the not guilty verdicts given to Clint Rickards and two former officers, and also mark International Women's Day. RadioLIVE's Heather du Plessis-Allan was in Wellington, and reported tension when the group reached the city's main police station. The protest march ended with an effigy of a police officer being set alight outside the front doors of the High Court.
