Three people died early this Sunday in Chile, after the curfew decree in three regions of that country and deployment of about 9,500 uniformed.
“He tomado la decisión de SUSPENDER LAS LIBERTADES PERSONALES, de movimiento, a través de un Toque de Queda TOTAL”, dijo Iturriaga.

The capital Santiago, Valparaíso (center) and Concepción (south) were under a strong military and police shelter after President Sebastián Piñera decreed a curfew in those regions during the early hours of Sunday, without avoiding popular demonstrations against neoliberal measures adopted by Chilean president and against the strong repression of which the people are victims.

The three people died in a fire occurred in the middle of a demonstration south of Santiago.
Under shouts of “enough of abuse” and with the Hashtag in social networks “#ChileDespertó”, that country faces widespread claims against an economic model in which access to health and education is practically private, with high social inequality, Low pensions and the rise in basic services.
The force of the social protests has displaced the Government of the rightist Piñera, who only days before had affirmed that Chile was a kind of “oasis” in the region.
