Pinochet dies and protestors clash with Santiago police · 618 days ago

Augusto Pinochet died today without having ever been prosecuted for the atrocious crimes he committed against his fellow Chileans. While he was in power, at least some 3,197 people were murdered by death squads to suppress political dissent, and 1,000 are still missing. Good riddance! Pinochet seems to me like the kind of guy Richard Nixon would idolize.

Both opponents and supporters of Pinochet took to the streets to celebrate, mourn, or express their outrage that he was never punished. In the capital, Santiago, 23 police officers were injured in clashes with rioters.

Here are some of the better pictures I found on Flickr:
