Big Protests in Brazil Demand President’s Ouster
Hundreds of thousands of Brazilians marched peacefully Sunday in over 50 cities around the country to demand President Dilma Rousseff's impeachment and to criticize government corruption, huffingtonpost.com reports.
Many of the protesters are sure, that the president must have known about a corruption scandal in the state oil firm, Petrobras.
"She may have not been directly involved in the corruption at Petrobras, but she certainly knew about it, and for me that makes her just as guilty and justifies her ouster," said one of the protesters from Sao Paulo, where the biggest protests were held.
