Chilean president Sebastian Pinera has asked lawmakers to allow troops back on the streets to the friend Public Infrastructure his request came just hours after Human Rights Watch released a report alleging grave abuses by Security Forces in recent weeks of protests human reports from santiago. Chile has been embroiled in peaceful protests and uncontrollable violence for more than 7 weeks the 2nd time in 5 days the government was served with a harsh report on the state of human rights this time from the washington based ngo Human Rights Watch while recognizing a serious deterioration in Public Security and the report concludes that Security Police are part of the problem rather than the solution the kind of reforms that big government. Has to implement to change the behavior and address the fundamental. Problems of lack of accountability and brutality of the National Police of chile are urgent oh no not excessive use of force illegal detention sexual abuse brutal beatings against thousands of citizens including children as well as destroying or distorting incriminating evidence part of a long list of the bill says used to describe a Security Force that has not been overhauled since chile return to democracy indeed. Different governments have done is to grant it regularly more a more powers to the police without mike responsibility in other words we believe. That unlike his strong rejection of Amnesty International support president s have a stamping it out quickly embraced recommendations to create a new modern. Lease force that can be both of spec give and guarantee respect for human rights.

Much of our basic infrastructure like electricity Drinking Water and hospitals have been attacked but theres a 2nd benefit it will free many Police Officers so they can concentrate on being on the street in our parks protecting the security of our citizens. Given chillies history of brutality under military leadership clean out the army which is trained for combat is likely to generate more control to see depending on the scope of their mandate but the very fact that such a move is even being contemplated is evidence of the incapacity of the police to step to really address the challenges chile is facing and as things stand now it can be argued that the police is contributing to rather than reducing the environment of violence here you see in human aljazeera.
