MemoriaViva[1]
The following is the complete list of DINA agents, which was provided a few years ago by the Army to the Courts of Justice. The text was kept under lock and key for a long period, but time leaked it to human rights lawyers and a journalist specializing in this field.
This document, which has never been published in print media, has reached Clarín from the desk of a journalist who has followed multiple cases of human rights violations during the dictatorship. The document, therefore, is completely authentic. It concerns more than a thousand agents, some prosecuted, others convicted, and not a few already deceased.
