Description
The statue of the Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro has been reinaugurated in Peru's capital Lima, two decades after it was removed. The city's mayor and the president of the Madrid region attended the unveiling ceremony on Saturday, while a group of demonstrators gathered to protest the statue's return. "For us it is an offense, an affront to all the native people of Peru, Latin America and also the world," one demonstrator told AFP. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
