Tanzania rocked with post-election violence

As post-election violence grips Tanzania, the United Nations is urging the government to refrain from using disproportionate force against protestors. This follows remarks made by Tanzania's army chief - labelling the protestors 'criminals'. According to the opposition, around 700 have been killed in the clashes. Internet access has been disrupted since October 29- while a heavy military and police presence patrolled the streets of Dar es Salaam.
