Clashes have erupted between Brazilian police and the protesters who took to the streets in Sao Paulo against the impeachment trial of suspended president Dilma Rousseff.
Brazil's former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said that the country's Senate inaugurated a "national day of shame" with the impeachment trial of suspended president Dilma Rousseff.
The Senate will consider views "for" and "against" the removal of the President of the country from power.
Brazil's Supreme Court announced Friday that the final impeachment trial of suspended President Dilma Rousseff will be held on August 25.
A report by the Office of the Public Prosecutor said Rousseff was not guilty of a crime, seriously undermines arguments made by politicians backing her ouster.
