Guillermo Jiménez Díaz died that day at 9:20 hours, at the Hospital de Rancagua, due to peritonitis caused by a penetrating abdominal gunshot wound with spinal cord transection; "homicide" (sic), as certified by the Medical Death Certificate from the Legal Medical Institute.

According to the information gathered by his spouse, on September 12, 1973, around noon and while Jiménez Díaz was inside the home of a leader of the Partido Socialista, he was struck by a bullet.

His spouse went to the location, but a *carabinero* informed her that he had already been taken away, wounded. He passed away at the local hospital after remaining hospitalized for several days. His family members were summoned on a single occasion to testify before the Military Prosecutor's Office.

Considering the information gathered and the investigation carried out by this Corporation, the Superior Council, even though it could not determine the precise circumstances of his death, given the date and cause of his passing, declared Guillermo Jiménez Díaz a victim of the prevailing political violence.
