PANG2001 ======== WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The CIA on Nov. 13 will release about 450 documents on covert operations in Chile for the period surrounding the bloody coup that put Augusto Pinochet in power, a U.S. official said on Tuesday. CIA Director George Tenet in August decided to withhold releasing hundreds of documents from 1962 to 1975, saying they would reveal intelligence methods employed worldwide. The release of the final segment of U.S. government documents on Chile for 1968-1991, as directed by the White House, was delayed from Sept. 14 while the withheld CIA documents on covert operations underwent another review for release. The CIA has said it did not instigate the coup that overthrew Chilean President Salvador Allende in September 1973, but had been aware of the military plotting. It also has said previously that it has no information to indicate the CIA was involved in Allende's death. About two dozen of the CIA covert operations documents reviewed again for declassification will not be released. Another 1,000 CIA documents on human rights abuses, terrorism and other acts of political violence in Chile will be released on Nov. 13. That will be in addition to declassified documents on Chile that will be released by other U.S. agencies. -------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with UNSUBSCRIBE COLEXT as the BODY of the message.
