into custody on saturday another key aide when taking who called on the public to oppose the coup was detained on friday on charges of sedition. the attorney for stitching and the deposed president when mint says he hasn't been able to contact either of them. as far as i know they are under house arrest on some to choose of her private home not one given by the government and when mental is not at the president's residence but in a separate home that is what i heard. activists are also being held this is the moment that weighing in says her father a former student protest leader was taken away by soldiers it's been 5 days since my father and other activists were arrested early hour on monday morning and since then we haven't heard anything about curation where they are being held or a health condition all the family members a very worried. the military is gradually cutting off the population from one

another and the outside world 1st by blocking facebook and twitter and instagram and now shutting down the internet the u.k. based internet monitoring group says as it starts day 2 pm local time internet connectivity in myanmar had fallen to 16 percent of ordinary level. party has declared itself the sole legitimate representative of the people. in a show of defiance about a dozen l.g. m.p.'s convened a symbolic parliamentary session on thursday yangon's regional m.p.'s held a swearing in ceremony via. international pressure on myanmar is growing. the un security council has called on the military to release on sun sujit and others who are being detained the us is considering targeted sanctions and in the region malaysian indonesian leaders have called on the association of southeast asian nations or audience to hold a special meeting but the generals have been down this road before me and most

military leaders were shunned by the west when they ran the country from 962 to 2011 they want to be giving up power so easily. for its cross live now through phone story who's in the malaysian capital kuala lumpur of florence just bring us up to speed what's the latest. well it's been quite difficult getting information out of myanmar can't because the country is still in the near total internet shutdown but we are hearing reports that there's been a 2nd day of street protests in yangon the largest city in myanmar hundreds of people just like on saturday out on the streets in yangon wearing red holding red balloons red being the color for the national league of democracy that won the elections in november we're also getting reports that there have been protests dozens of people coming out on the streets again to protest in mandalay the 2nd largest city in myanmar and also in a coastal town called more than mean now and that's not the only form of demonstrations or protests that the generals are facing there's also

a nightly noise protest and there's also a civil disobedience movement now it appears that the generals tactic of blocking social media platforms hasn't been enough to stop people from holding demonstrations coming out on the streets to protest and we know that about 180 people have been arrested since the coup started we don't yet know how the military is going to react to these demonstrations this is a country where the military has a history of brutal repression they used violence to put down protests in 1988 and also in 2007 so there's a chance that history could repeat itself but i think for now and it depends really very much on just how large the street demonstrations become and how much longer they go on for ok florence what's the reaction been then from the diaspora. well throughout the week we've seen protests being held around the world in japan

in south korea and especially in thailand where there's a big community of myanmar people living and working there that have been several protests taking place in thailand and around the world and of course that's not the only form of international pressure that myanmar military faces as all that so the un security council who have called on myanmar generals to release everyone they've held or they're holding it since the coup began on sun suchi and the president when they haven't been seen in public since they were detained in the early hours of monday their lawyer has an indian able to speak to them and the u.s. is said to be trying to put pressure on china to condemn the coup china's of course a very strong ally of myanmar is also an economic backer of myanmar and of course you know there's all this international pressure that's condemnation but history has also shown as how resistant myanmar military can be to external pressure so

it's very hard to predict at this juncture just whether what is going to be enough to persuade the generals to give up power ok thank you for that update there florence. the killing of a street performer in chile has triggered protests against alleged police violence demonstrators confronted security forces in the capital santiago fire water cannon on the crowds police shot the street juggler in a southern town on friday of the officers say he resisted a routine i did check video of the incident on social media has sparked widespread anger or suspend the spec is editor in chief at the multi-media news site chile today he says a lack of reform in the police force is at the heart of the problem. it's always been like this in the last couple of decades because the police institution has never really been reformed since the years of been a dictatorship of course that ended in the 1990 s. . so there's never been

a real police reform and we saw the results of the lack of those reforms social uprising basically all the major human rights organizations came to chile they sold there were serious human rights violations but they're still now and not real any reforms people the police don't really know how to 3 to 2 to work with something else than just the excessive force that they display every time so it's something that really needs to be reformed and quickly and especially profound there's a lot of tension in general in chile in society at the moment especially directed towards authorities like the chilean police and just one detention is not enough to stop these on growing crimes because this. does happen in plain daylight it was captured by various mobile phones so we could all see that this happened but there's 'd a lot of human rights violations a lot of repression by the chilean police going on in the shanty towns near the
