CHILE BRACES FOR “DAY OF THE YOUNG COMBATANT”

(March 29, 2007) Over four thousand police will be in Santiago’s streets Thursday, because both police and government officials worry that violence could flair on the annual Day of the Young Combatant.

Originally created to honor two young brothers killed by General Pinochet’s forces, the day has since been used as an excuse by university students and various leftist groups in Chile to stage very violent protests.

Santiago’s chief of police, Jorge Acuña, cancelled a planned trip to Europe to be in town on the potentially dangerous day.
