Riot police have used tear gas to disperse demonstrators in Brazil's capital after tens of thousands of people marched to demand President Dilma Rouseff's impeachment.

The clashes took place near government buildings in Brasilia where protesters gathered to criticise government corruption.

Over one million Brazilians protested peacefully in several other cities across the country on Sunday demanding Ms Rousseff steps down.

Much of their anger was focused on a scheme at state-run oil firm Petrobras, which prosecutors call the biggest corruption scandal ever uncovered in Brazil.

At least $800m was paid in bribes and other funds by the nation's biggest construction and engineering firms in exchange for inflated Petrobras contracts.

The biggest of the protests, held on the 30th anniversary of Brazil's return to democracy after a long military regime, took place in Sao Paulo, an opposition stronghold where some 210,000 gathered on a main avenue.
