Chile: Water cannon turned on protesters at Santiago ‘Super Monday’ demo

Thousands of protesters took to the streets of Santiago in the latest so-called ‘Super Monday’ protest, where students, unions and independent organisations in Chile showed their dissatisfaction with the government of President Sebastian Pinera. Footage shows the police using water cannons against the crowd of protesters, who blocked the main roads of the capital with barricades and used laser... Еще pointers against the officers. The current wave of demonstrations, considered the largest in decades, was triggered by a rise in subway fares, which has been suspended. Since then, the protests have become a movement with broader complaints against the policies of Pinera and against growing social inequality.
