Peruvian cops clash with protesters demanding president quit FMTNews FMTWorld
LIMA: Protesters and police clashed over the weekend during renewed demonstrations against Peru’s interim President Dina Boluarte in the capital Lima, where demonstrators are demanding she step down and hold elections.
The ensuing crackdown by security forces left almost 50 people dead, according to an estimate by Human Rights Watch, which accused the authorities of extrajudicial and arbitrary killings. Yesterday, police fired tear gas to disperse a crowd that was occupying the central San Martin square. Further demonstrations are planned for July 28, a national holiday celebrating Peru’s 1821 independence from Spain.
