"We are worried by reports that security forces have used live ammunition and rubber bullets in some areas, and have also fired tear gas cannisters directly at protestors," Hurtado said, insisting that in dealing with demonstrations, "the use of force should be exceptional".
"Any use of force must comply with applicable international human rights norms and standards," she said, stressing that firearms should never be used "except as a last resort to protect against an imminent threat of death or serious injury."
"All incidents in which the actions of security forces have resulted in death and injury should be promptly, independently and transparently investigated," she said.
