katy watson, bbc news, sydney. ecuador is voting in a referendum on proposed tougher measures to tackle a surge in gang—related violence, which has seen two mayors killed in the last week. measures include an expansion of military and police powers that will allow the military to patrol the streets alongside the police. they'll also signicantly boost gun controls and impose harsher prison sentences for "terrorism" and drug trafficking. president daniel noboha also wants to change the constitution so ecuadorans wanted abroad for organised crime—related offences can be extradited. a state of emergency was announced in january after a top gang leader escaped from jail, there were prison riots, an armed attack on a tv station and several politicians were murdered. in the last year alone 8000 violent deaths have been recorded. but human rights groups are concerned that if these measures are passed it could lead to abuses such as police brutality and arbitrary arrests which, they say, have already increased this year
