Brazilians stage nation-wide anti-government protests

Hundreds of thousands of Brazilians have taken to the streets across the country to protest against alleged government corruption and looming recession, calling for the resignation of President Dilma Rouseff.

At least 5,000 demonstrators gathered in the city center of the capital Brasilia on Sunday and a police estimate showed that some 419,000 other protesters marched in 12 other cities of Latin America’s biggest country.

Organizers, however, claim that about 664,000 people marched in nation-wide rallies.

The crowds protested against alleged endemic corruption in the government, chanting “Dilma out” and “corrupt government.” .... http://www.presstv.ir
