CHILE: Human Rights Case
The death of a Chilean professor following his
interrogation by the state security agency has prompted
both the courts and the Interior Minister to order in-
vestigations. This, the most serious human rights
violation in Chile this year, is a severe relapse in
Chile's efforts to improve its human rights record and
will further damage the reputation of the security
agency, the predecessor of which was involved in the
Letelier assassination in Washington. The highly
publicized case comes on the eve of the Chilean Supreme
Court's ruling on the US extradition request for former
security chief Contreras in connection with his agency's
involvement with the Letelier assassination. It also
follows Argentina's low-key reopening of its investi-
gation of possible Chilean security agency involvement
in the assassination in 1974 of Chilean ex-General Prats
in Argentina. The professor's death could be the inci-
dent that finally compels the government or the courts
to move to curb the excesses of the security forces.
