Anger at Chilean mine case closure

The 33 Chilean miners who were trapped deep underground for more than two months in 2010 are outraged at a decision to close the case against the mine owners.

The cave-in at the San Jose mine in the Atacama desert brought the mine’s safety record into focus and put Chile’s main industry under close scrutiny.

Mario Sepulveda, who became the public face of the miners, said that the decision is a “disgrace” to Chile’s justice system.
