Brazil: Protesters Invade Rio Council Chamber

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 01 Agustus 2013 | 23.31

Demonstrators have managed to enter a council building in Rio de Janeiro during clashes in the Brazilian city.

About 50 out of 700 people accessed the building through a side door as they protested against state governor Sergio Cabral.

The demonstrators, who accuse Mr Cabral of corruption and are calling for his impeachment, were moved off by police using tear gas and pepper spray.

More protests are planned with one set for the biggest shanty town in Rio's tourist area, Rocinha, where 42-year-old construction worker Amarildo de Souza has been missing for two weeks since he was allegedly picked up by police.

"Where is Amarildo?" is a chant that observers say is often heard.

Last month, more than one million Brazilians took the streets across the country to demand better public services and an end to endemic corruption.

They also protested against the high cost of hosting next year's World Cup.

The unrest began in Sao Paulo with young militants objecting furiously to the increase in public transport fares, a call picked up in several other major cities.

The fare increases were subsequently cancelled.
