Causa abierta contra el genocidio

The impunity for the crimes committed in Argentina during the last military dictatorship (1976-1983) motivated the direct victims of the repression and various human rights movements and legal experts to file a popular accusation against the military officers who directed and carried out the brutal repression: 30,000 disappeared, children kidnapped from their parents, and millions stolen from the victims. The complaint filed before the Central Court of Instruction No. 5 of Madrid by the Progressive Union of Prosecutors found support in Judge Baltasar Garzón, who opened Case 19/97 Against Genocide and State Terrorism in Argentina, 1976-1983.
