AFP , Thursday 24 Oct 2019

The UN said Thursday it would send a special mission to Chile to investigate allegations of human rights abuses, as the South American country is rocked by deadly anti-government protests.

"Having monitored the crisis in Chile since it began, I have decided to send a verification mission to examine the allegations of human rights violations," the head of the UN Human Rights Council and former Chilean president, Michelle Bachelet, said in a tweet.
