The
"CHILE FIGUEROA PETITION"
asks to the Inter American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR)
justice for DANIEL FIGUEROA DE LA FUENTE, who was kidnapped
on December 2002 and later tortured and turn into pieces by
sicarios of the government of Ricardo Lagos Escobar, then
President of Chile.
On April
2003, nineteen Daniel’s bones appeared close to part
of the still well kept clothes that he was wearing when he
disappeared, his identification documents and his personal
key ring.
A few days
later, a well known Chilean newspaper delivered hundreds of
documents that Daniel Figueroa left to them with the instruction
to make them public in case he might be murdered. These documents
(The "Figueroa Papers") allowed Chilean justice
to condemn on corruption grounds several Lagos’ ministers
and high officials. Ricardo Lagos himself was not jailed thanks
to an illegal sentence he got from a Santiago’s High
Court.
Weeks after
Daniel’s bones were found, Ricardo Lagos, Pablo Longueira,
currently a minister in the government of Chile, and José
Miguel Insulza, currently the General Secretary of the Organization
of American States, orchestrated a gang, that probably includes
members of both the Congress and the High Courts as well as
the owners of important Chilean press and TV corporations.
The initial
purpose of this gang was to cover up the crimes of those who
masterminded and executed Daniel Figueroa’s kidnapping,
torturing and slaughtering. But this gave birth to an endless
set of misdeeds and complicities that has grown so profound
and wide spread that it strongly impairs Chilean Democracy,
it has granted impunity to many additional crimes and it allows
its members to develop a large number of illegal businesses.
"CHILE
FIGUEROA PETITION" has been given the number P-1849-11
between the Human Rights violations that are under the scrutiny
of the IACHR.
This Petition
asks the IACHR and the Chilean government to develop the investigation,
clarify this crime, and punish the perpetrators, the masterminds
and those who covered up the crime.
