-----Original Message----- From: International Justice Watch Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Margarita Lacabe Sent: 2000. siječanj 12 02:01 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Letter to Mr. Straw >From Maximo Kinast (thanks to Stacie Jonas for the translation) Open letter to Rt. Hon. Home Secretary of the United Kingdom Mr. Jack Straw We respectfully submit this letter to you to express our extreme pain and anguish, as Chileans, as thousands of victims of torture and exile, and as the families of the disappeared that continue waiting, day after day, to find a humanitarian answer to our questions: WHERE ARE OUR CHILDREN, MR. STRAW? WHERE ARE OUR PARENTS, OUR BROTHERS? WHERE ARE THEY MR. STRAW? WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THEM? For years, we have suffered every day from the pain of having our loved ones snatched away from us. It has been years since we have heard from them, Mr. Straw. Were they tortured and killed? Were their bodies destroyed by dynamite or were they thrown into the ocean? Mr. Straw, it is daily torture for us to live without knowing, without answers, without being able to recover their bodies for burial. And what if some are still alive? Could there still be prisoners that remain in some remote Chilean military garrison? Could there possibly be some still alive, held by the Nazis, in Colonia Dignidad? Mr. Straw, we beg you to allow the extradition of Augusto Pinochet Ugarte to proceed on humanitarian grounds, so that he can respond to our questions in the Spanish courts, where he will receive only the best medical care and respect for his human rights. Mr. Straw, please, end the suffering that still tortures our people. Please, on humanitarian grounds, in the name of law and justice, allow the extradition to proceed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *__ ___ _ ___ __ ___ _ _ _ __ /'_|'0 \'V'/'\|'|'__|'|'|'/'_| \_'\''_/\'/|'\\'|'_||'V'V'\_'\ |__/_|'.//'|_|\_|___|\_n_/|__/ http://mprofaca.cro.net/latest.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bolt down the furniture.
