Almost 300 arrested in Chile protests in memory of Pinochet's victims

Correio da Manhã14 September 2026 at 01:30

Almost 300 people were arrested during protests in Chile that took place on Friday and Saturday, on the 53rd anniversary of the September 11, 1973 coup d'état. The protests were held in memory of the victims of the Augusto Pinochet regime.

The article does not specify the locations where the arrests took place nor does it provide more details about the nature of the protests or the profile of those arrested. There are also no mentions of police charges or confrontations between protesters and security forces.

The September 11, 1973 coup led to the establishment of a military dictatorship in Chile, led by Augusto Pinochet, which remained in power for 17 years. The celebrations of this anniversary are traditionally marked by demonstrations and memorial events throughout the country.

Why this matters

Readers who follow Latin American politics are directly affected by these events, which demonstrate the persistent social tension in Chile around the legacy of the military dictatorship. This follow-up to the annual September demonstrations reflects the lasting impact of the coup and the ongoing polarization in Chilean society.
