Mauritius reels from worst riots in decades after woman shot by police

Police in Mauritius imposed an overnight curfew overnight to quell the worst riots to break out on the Indian Ocean island in decades. Peaceful protests over water shortages and the high cost of living that started a week ago erupted into violence on Friday when a woman was shot and wounded by police at a roadblock. The circumstances of the shooting are not clear, but the officer has since been arrested and remanded in custody. Prime Minister Navin Ramgoolam ordered the curfew on Tuesday, warning against those "acting against the interests of the country", which is a tourism and financial services hub.
