40 years after the Military Coup: Only 62 former uniformed personnel are serving sentences for crimes against humanity

40 years after the military coup, only 62 former uniformed personnel are imprisoned for crimes against humanity, although some have accumulated sentences totaling hundreds of years, to which several more could be added, as there are currently more than a thousand pending cases.

Although these proceedings have been reactivated since the year 2000 due to the judiciary's determination to appoint exclusive judges, according to relatives and human rights lawyers, the passing of the years is deepening the wounds rather than bringing closure, as neither justice nor reparation has been achieved.

Lawyer Roberto Celedón said that beyond the criminal sanction currently being obtained slowly, the "future is uncertain" in civil matters. "Today, in the best-case scenario, a criminal sanction can be reached, but there is no right to be indemnified," he noted when consulted by Cambio21.

In that sense, he made a harsh criticism of the participation of the State Defense Council in the cases. "Even though State agents committed very serious acts, it is an institutional policy at the State Defense Council not to have a human rights policy." And although he considered that the country is mature enough to recognize the truth, concrete actions from the authorities are missing so that "never again" is truly effective. "There is no clear public policy that allows for the education of future generations, so that what happened is not forgotten and is not repeated." Do not forget Places like Villa Grimaldi, Londres 38, the memorial at the General Cemetery, and the Museum of Memory are part of the effort made by the Concertación governments to recover the truth, vindicate the victims, and achieve justice and reconciliation; however, sectors persist that seek oblivion and amnesty, without repentance and punishment for the guilty. Ricardo Brodsky, director of the Museum of Memory, stated that the fact that there is a large number of cases that have not yet reached a judicial resolution affects the coexistence of Chileans: "it is a terrible precedent for society because it prevents the reconciliation of Chileans and generates cultural violence, because the denial of justice makes people feel they are not part of society." Although he highlighted the progress made in the matter over the last 10 years, he acknowledged that it has been complicated "due to the pact of silence of those who committed and covered up these violations, and there are no acts of repentance or collaboration, which makes it more difficult to clarify the facts." Interviewed by Cambio21, he referred to the requests for pardons for imprisoned military personnel: "Humanitarian reasons can be considered, but these are always associated with forgiveness, and in Chile, the people who are serving sentences have not shown any sign of repentance nor asked the victims for forgiveness. Therefore, it is inappropriate for General Fuente-Alba and right-wing parliamentarians like Jorge Ulloa to ask for humanitarian measures or the remission of sentences." The promises Esteban Silva (PS), candidate for senator for Santiago Poniente, denounced the existence of an agreement for a pardon between the government of President Sebastián Piñera and those prosecuted for crimes against humanity. The politician said he has sources that would confirm this initiative, with which the president would fulfill the promise made during his campaign at the Círculo Español, where he committed that "in case of reaching La Moneda, he would take measures so that justice is applied in a timely manner and without maintaining processes ad eternum, which never end." He also announced that "we will appeal to the Courts and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, as this would not be an act proper to the government but a maneuver intended to circumvent national and international laws regarding Human Rights." Silva also criticized the statements of the head of the Army, General Juan Miguel Fuente-Alba, which in his opinion "reflect the existence of a major political operation intended to pave the way for impunity in Chile; it is very suggestive that the President has not said anything in the face of an act of public political deliberation by the Commander-in-Chief of the Army." This is not the first time Piñera has faced this dilemma. At the beginning of his government, it was discussed whether to include human rights violators in the Bicentennial pardon, and last June, members of the so-called "military bench," Jorge Ulloa (UDI) and Mario Bertolino (RN), presented a failed bill for the remission of sentences. The former conscripts of the dictatorship have also made Piñera pay the price, as he also promised them compensation during his campaign. In conversation with Cambio21, the president of the group of former Army conscript soldiers, Fernando Mellado, said that "we have been kept on nothing but painkillers; he promised us 300 million dollars to comply with what was agreed, however, that was later reduced to 40 million, and finally we got nothing, because according to them 'the resources did not exist'." Zero repentance During these years, none of those convicted have made a gesture of repentance; on the contrary, they have blamed the political class for the crimes of the dictatorship. Recently, in a letter sent to the director of Cambio21, General (r) Eduardo Iturriaga Neumann, the highest-ranking uniformed officer imprisoned at the Punta Peuco prison, said that the Chilean State is in debt to them. The convicted former uniformed officer, who signed the letter as a "military political prisoner," ruled out any repentance: "The more than 60 convicted and more than 1,000 prosecuted are not responsible for the events that occurred in Chile and that led to the Military Pronouncement, nor are they directly responsible for the events that took place during the Military Government, since the vast majority were disciplined professional subordinates in their respective institutions, who had to face terrorists and armed criminals who intended to subvert order in the country, carrying out all types of actions condemned by the laws in force." Not only do they show no gestures of repentance, but they have also acted in open belligerence and contempt for authority. Iturriaga Neumann himself was a fugitive for 52 days in 2007, and it was recently learned that former Army Captain Carlos Minoletti, prosecuted for the 1973 murder of 26 opponents of the Augusto Pinochet dictatorship, for the subsequent exhumation of the bodies and their disposal at sea, has been a fugitive for a year and a half. The convicted Currently, there are more than a thousand human rights cases being processed in the courts, with which new convictions are expected in the coming months. The Human Rights Observatory of the Diego Portales University prepared a document detailing the judicial situation of the 89 people sentenced to effective prison terms for human rights crimes in Chile since the year 2000. The document records 7 cases whose incarceration is not yet confirmed, 16 people with an alternative regime or reduced or served sentence, 4 deceased, in addition to 62 incarcerated, among whom stand out Manuel Contreras, with more than 40 convictions, Marcelo Moren Brito with 28, Miguel Krassnoff Martchenko with 26, Basclay Zapata with 14, Pedro Espinoza with 11, Raúl Iturriaga Neumann with 6, among others.

Former Carabineros convicted for qualified kidnapping and homicide of peasants in Freire and a student in Temuco in 1973

The visiting minister for human rights violation cases in the jurisdictions of Temuco, Valdivia, Puerto Montt, and Coyhaique, Álvaro Mesa Latorre, issued separate sentences in two cases he is investigating in his jurisdiction.

In the first sentence, he condemned four former Carabineros to 20 years of effective prison, as authors of the consummated crimes of qualified homicide of peasants Leomeres Monroy Seguel and Hernaldo Aguilera Salas and the qualified kidnapping of Alejo Barriga Nahuelhual.

Crimes against humanity perpetrated on October 17, 1973, in the commune of Freire. In the ruling (case file 114.029), Minister Mesa Latorre also applied to the convicted former Carabineros Juan Héctor Pasmiño Sepúlveda, Erasmo Ananías Henríquez Palma, Ramón Arias Unzueta, and Juan Arturo Hernández Ponce the legal accessories of absolute perpetual disqualification for public offices and political rights, and absolute disqualification for professional titles for the duration of the sentences.

After September 11, 1973, the most senior and trusted personnel of the head of the Freire Carabineros Station, Lieutenant Luis Hidalgo López (now deceased), were in charge of operational tasks, including Juan Pasmiño Sepúlveda, Erasmo Henríquez Palma, Juan Arturo Hernández Ponce, Ramón Arias Unzueta, and the now-deceased Hugo Avendaño Valk and Luis Henríquez Apablaza.

This same group was in charge of making arrests for common crimes, such as cattle rustling or theft. Likewise, arrests for political reasons were carried out by the most senior personnel of the group, including Corporal Pasmiño, with the detainees being entered into the station's cells and interrogated by Lieutenant Luis Hidalgo López, without being entered into the guard logs.

In that sense, the heads of each Carabineros unit had autonomy to detain people and place them at the disposal of the corresponding Prosecutor's Office. On the night of October 17, 1973, a Carabineros patrol led by Juan Pasmiño Sepúlveda and composed of Luis Henríquez Apablaza, Erasmo Henríquez Palma, Juan Arturo Hernández Ponce, and Ramón Arias Unzueta, traveled in a private pickup truck to the El Roble settlement in the Martínez de Rozas sector of the commune of Freire, with the purpose of detaining several people.

There, among others, the peasant leaders of the settlement Hernaldo Aguilera Salas, 28 years old, and Leomeres Monroy Seguel, 25 years old, were captured and executed during the transfer from their place of detention to the Freire Carabineros Station.

Alejo Barriga Nahuelhual, a 40-year-old widower, had been detained in 1972 for a common crime at the Freire Carabineros Station, but taking advantage of a lapse by the guard sub-officer Juan Pasmiño Sepúlveda, he escaped from that police unit.

A summary investigation was opened in which Pasmiño was sanctioned with fifteen days of arrest and a notation in his service record for acting with inexcusable negligence in the custody of the detainee.

On the night of October 17, 1973, a neighbor of Alejo Barriga Nahuelhual heard gunshots from his house, so he went out and observed a Carabineros vehicle in front of Barriga's house, located approximately 100 meters from his own.

The next day, the neighbor went with his son to Alejo Barriga's house, seeing the door destroyed, the bed completely stained with blood, and traces of blood leading from the main door to the patio, which indicated that he had been dragged.

The same neighbor knew that on previous occasions, Freire Carabineros had gone to look for Alejo Barriga to arrest him, without having found him on any of them. Likewise, they learned that the same previous night they had detained Monroy and Aguilera.

Alejo's sister went to her brother's house the next day, being able to see a trail of blood from inside the house to the street, noticing that all the things in the property were turned over, in addition to broken glass and cups.

On several occasions, the sister went to the Freire Station to ask about Alejo, without obtaining answers, and the whereabouts of Alejo Barriga Nahuelhual remain unknown to this day. Former Carabineros and a civilian convicted for qualified kidnapping of a student in Temuco in 1973 In another case (file 53.680), Minister Mesa Latorre issued the sentence in which he condemned former Carabineros officer Gonzalo Enrique Arias González, former sub-officer Omar Burgos Dejean, and civilian Jorge Nibaldo Chovar Aguilera to 12 years of effective prison, as authors of the crime of qualified kidnapping of Luis Bernardo Maldonado Ávila, as a crime against humanity, perpetrated starting September 22, 1973, in the commune of Temuco. In the ruling, the legal accessories of absolute perpetual disqualification for public offices and political rights and absolute disqualification for professional titles for the duration of the sentences were applied to the convicted. In addition, Minister Mesa Latorre condemned former Carabineros officer Eduardo Orlando Riquelme Rodríguez to serve a 5-year prison sentence as an accomplice; while former sub-officers Hugo Opazo Inzunza and Ernesto Ildefonso Garrido Bravo must serve 3 years in prison as accessories to the qualified kidnapping. The convicted and implicated in this case were part of the staff of the Second Carabineros Precinct of Temuco and were part of an operational group called the "civil commission" whose function, starting from the military coup, was destined for repressive or intelligence tasks that consisted of the search and detention of people who were considered dangerous to the dictatorial regime. In repressive and intelligence matters, they received orders issued by the Carabineros Sub-prefect of Cautín, Gonzalo Enrique Arias González, who also performed functions as a Carabineros Prosecutor. The aforementioned civil commission was composed of Lieutenant Eduardo Riquelme Rodríguez in charge of directing the group; Juan Fritz Vega (deceased), Omar Burgos Dejean, and sub-officers Hugo Opazo Inzunza and Ernesto Garrido Bravo, all from the same police unit. The information gathered by the group led by Riquelme Rodríguez was communicated directly to Sub-prefect Arias González himself. The people detained by the aforementioned group were taken to the common cells of the Second Carabineros Precinct of Temuco, which could only be interrogated or visited by the members of this civil commission, with the rest of the unit's staff unable to have contact with them. On September 22, 1973, Luis Bernardo Maldonado Ávila, 24 years old, a student of Mechanical Execution Engineering at the State Technical University, was detained by the members of this "civil commission" who were accompanied by the civilian collaborator Jorge Nibaldo Chovar Aguilera, a known sympathizer of the National Party, of the Patria y Libertad group of the time, and known for his closeness to uniformed personnel of different armed institutions, being seen on repeated occasions with them on the streets of Temuco. The civilian informant acted as the driver of the private vehicle in which the repressive group moved. Since that date, the whereabouts of the detainee Maldonado Ávila are unknown. Various testimonies account for the student's presence in the cells of the Second Precinct. In subsequent days, Claudina Ávila, the detainee's mother, was taken into custody and led gagged and blindfolded to the same police unit, with the purpose of intimidating her and preventing search efforts for her son. The mother passed away without being able to find an answer regarding the whereabouts of her son Luis Maldonado Ávila. by Darío Núñez

Supreme Court issues convictions against former Carabineros and former detectives for crimes during the dictatorship

Convictions confirmed for two former Carabineros for the crime of an agricultural worker in Freire in 1973 The Supreme Court convicted two former Carabineros who were on the staff of the Freire Station at the time of the events, for their responsibility in the consummated crime of qualified kidnapping of agricultural worker Alejo Barriga Nahuelhual, committed starting October 17, 1973, in the aforementioned commune.

In a unanimous ruling (case file 247.871-2023), the Second Chamber of the highest court—composed of Minister Manuel Antonio Valderrama, Ministers María Teresa Letelier and María Cristina Gajardo, and acting lawyers Pía Tavolari and Eduardo Gandulfo—rejected the appeal filed by the convicted and confirmed the sentence that condemned Ramón Arias Unzueta and Juan Arturo Hernández Ponce to 13-year prison sentences as authors of the crime.

The also-convicted Juan Héctor Pasmiño Sepúlveda and Erasmo Ananías Henríquez Palma died after the first-instance ruling was issued. The facts In the judicial investigation, it is established that after September 11, 1973, the most senior and trusted personnel of the head of the Freire Carabineros Station, Lieutenant Luis Hidalgo López (now deceased), were in charge of operational tasks, including Juan Pasmiño Sepúlveda, Erasmo Ananías Henríquez Palma, Juan Arturo Hernández Ponce, Ramón Arias Unzueta, and the now-deceased Hugo Avendaño Valk and Luis Henríquez Apablaza.

A summary investigation was opened in which Pasmiño was sanctioned with fifteen days of arrest and a notation in his service record for acting with inexcusable negligence in the custody of the detainee.

On the night of October 17, 1973, a neighbor of Alejo Barriga Nahuelhual heard gunshots from his house, so he went out and observed a Carabineros vehicle in front of Barriga's house, located approximately 100 meters from his own.

The next day, the neighbor went with his son to Alejo Barriga's house, seeing the door destroyed, the bed completely stained with blood, and traces of blood leading from the main door to the patio, which indicated that he had been dragged.

The same neighbor knew that on previous occasions, Freire Carabineros had gone to look for Alejo Barriga to arrest him, without having found him on any of them. Likewise, they learned that the same previous night they had detained two peasants from the area.

Alejo's sister went to her brother's house the next day, being able to see a trail of blood from inside the house to the street, noticing that all the things in the property were turned over, in addition to broken glass and cups.

On several occasions, the sister went to the Freire Station to ask about Alejo, without obtaining answers, and the whereabouts of Alejo Barriga Nahuelhual remain unknown to this day. Convictions confirmed for two former detectives for the crime of a resident in La Legua in 1973 The Supreme Court rejected the appeal filed against the sentence that condemned two former inspector detectives of the Fifth Judicial Precinct of the PDI, for their responsibility in the consummated crime of qualified kidnapping of Sergio Hernán Valdovinos Pérez, committed starting December 1973 in the La Legua neighborhood of Santiago. In a unanimous ruling (case file 18.231-2024), the Second Chamber of the highest court—composed in this case by Minister Manuel Antonio Valderrama, Ministers Eliana Quezada and María Carolina Catepillán, and acting lawyers Pía Tavolari and Juan Carlos Ferrada—ratified the sentence that condemned Julio Avilés Romero and René Humberto Martínez Rivas to 6 years in prison as authors of the crime. In the judicial investigation, it is established that on December 19, 1973, Sergio Hernán Valdovinos Pérez, a 29-year-old master painter, was detained at the corner of Avenida Santa Rosa and Placer by police officers of the Fifth Judicial Precinct of the Investigative Police. Among the apprehenders were Inspector Sergio Orlando Paiva Aravena and detectives Julio Avilés Romero and René Humberto Martínez Rivas, who took the detainee to the premises of the Fifth Precinct that operated at the General Headquarters of the Investigative Police, located on General Mackenna Street in the commune of Santiago, where he was kept prisoner and subjected to interrogations and illegitimate coercion. The next day, the PDI took Valdovinos Pérez out of the facility and took him to the La Legua neighborhood to point out the address of three other people who were also detained and taken to the aforementioned Fifth Investigative Precinct. On December 21, 1973, in the afternoon, Inspector Sergio Paiva Aravena and detectives Julio Avilés Romero and René Martínez Rivas took Sergio Valdovinos Pérez out of the police unit again, in a car driven by police assistant Ignacio Israel Olarte Sepúlveda, also taking another of the detainees from the La Legua neighborhood. They headed to Franklin Street, where they detained a fifth person, and then moved to the La Legua neighborhood, parking the vehicle in which they were traveling on Santa Elisa Street, in the vicinity of the home of one of the people detained the previous day. The PDI prepared to carry out a raid on the home of Sergio Hernán Valdovinos Pérez and made him get out of the police vehicle. At that moment, the detainee Valdovinos Pérez allegedly tried to flee, but the fact is that police assistant Ignacio Olarte Sepúlveda killed him with a gunshot to the chest. by Darío Núñez
