Chile's president Sebastian Pinera has been impeached by the lower house of congress, setting up a trial in the nation's Senate over allegations he favored the sale of a family property while in office.

The vote to impeach passed with the bare minimum of 78 votes needed in the 155-member Chamber of Deputies, and followed a marathon 20-hour session. Sixty-seven legislators voted against impeachment, including several members of the opposition. Others abstained or were absent.
