 Chile’s justice minister, Marcela Ríos, has resigned her post, the country’s president, Gabriel Boric, said on Saturday, amid accusations of wrongdoing over pardons given to people connected to violent 2019 protests.

Lawyer Luis Cordero Vega will take up the job in the coming days, leftist Boric added in a video statement, thanking Ríos for her work during her 10 months in the role.
