The fourth was detained at his workplace, located in the Conchalí commune, also by members of the Buin Regiment.
All of the bodies were found with multiple gunshot wounds, as stated in the respective death certificates, on the Panamericana Norte that same day.
The Commission formed the conviction that the deaths of Jaime Iván Meneses Cisternas, Miguel Segundo Orellana Barrera, and Jorge Bernardino Pinto Esquivel constituted political executions outside of all legality and were grave violations of human rights, attributable to the actions of State agents, with their detention having been established and given the specific causes of their deaths.
