Security scuffles with disabled protesters at anti-Atos action
BLAZERED security officers at the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games headquarters tussled with disabled protesters yesterday as they protested against hated sponsor Atos.

Atos has sought to boost its public profile by sponsoring database software for international sporting events.
