Rusuhan Meletus atas kos lawatan Paus ke Brazil . . .


Rusuhan Meletus atas kos lawatan Paus ke Brazil. Kurang daripada 1 jam selepas lawatan Paus ke Rio, satu siri protes kecil jalanan yang bertaburan tercetus di seluruh bandar.

Masih ada kemarahan meluas terhadap perbelanjaan kerajaan pada Sukan Olimpik dan bola sepak Piala DUNIA dan beberapa langkah-langkah yang diambil untuk menjadikan paus tuan rumah telah membuat perkara-perkara yang lebih buruk.

Pelajar Andre Ribeiro berkata: . . ."Masalahnya ialah perbelanjaan kerajaan Mereka telah menghabiskan lebih daripada 50 juta dolar pada lawatan beliau dan itulah terlalu banyak Ia patut telah dilabur dalam kesihatan atau pendidikan, ini bukan bantahan agama, ia adalah satu bantahan politik. Ia tiada kaitan dengan Pope. "

Pertempuran tercetus apabila kira-kira 300 penunjuk perasaan mula melontarkan firebombs pada polis rusuhan. Pihak berkuasa bertindak balas dengan melepaskan tembakan peluru getah. Berpuluh-puluh orang cedera dan beberapa tangkapan telah dibuat.

Riots erupt over cost of Pope's visit to Brazil .Less than an hour after the Pope's visit to Rio, a series of small, scattered street protests broke out across the city.

There is still widespread anger over the government's spending on the Olympics and football's World Cup, and for some measures taken to host the pope have made matters worse.

Student Andre Ribeiro said: "The problem is the government's spending. They've spent more than 50 million dollars on his visit and that's way too much. It could have been invested in health or education. This is not a religious protest, it's a political protest. It has nothing to do with the Pope."

Clashes broke out when around 300 demonstrators began to hurl firebombs at riot police. Authorities responded by firing rubber bullets. Dozens of people were hurt and several arrests were made.
