A U.N. human rights team is gathering testimony about hundreds of people allegedly injured by Chile's police during street protests in recent weeks.
Interior Minister Gonzalo Blumel has disputed such allegations, saying police were instructed"from the first moment" to follow protocols on ensuring public order and safety. The United Nations team will collect testimonies and reports throughout the country. The team will continue its work until Nov. 22.
The Medical College says its doctors have treated more than 140 people for eye injuries, a statistic that does not include similar injuries recorded at private hospitals.
