Huge demonstration in downtown Santiago Hidroaysén



In this cold night in May more than 30,000 people crowded into the center of Santiago to protest against the approval of the project HidroAysén. This event caps a week of protests in the capital and elsewhere in the country on the theme of environmentally and economically devastating happens to be the project that will allow the construction of 5 dams in Patagonia and the ecological damage and environmental mean for region and country. The march remained "peaceful" until approximately 21:00 hrs, at which special forces police began the repression against the demonstrators with violence that characterizes his act. There is talk of at least 63 arrested during protest tonight. Meanwhile north-south people is against this project called HidroAysén in cities like La Serena, Temuco, Valdivia, Concepción and many other places.
