> Dear Secretary of State,
>
> We know how delicate your position is and what pressures
> are exerted on you from all sides. Yet we cannot accept that
> you consider releasing Sr Pinochet on grounds of his poor health.
> What precedence is there for a war criminal to be released because
> he may not stand the strain of a trial?
>
> Sr Pinochet would be released on compassionate grounds, thus
> depriving his victims and theirs relatives and friends, or citizens
of
> the world, of ever seeing justice done, while those he had tortured
> and assassinated never had the benefit of either compassion or a
> fair trial.
>
> Besides, we are convinced that the "humanitarian" question
raised
> about Sr Pinochet has already been answered in so far as Spanish
> Penal Law has established sufficiently comfortable forms of
> emprisonment for people over 70 and we consequently consider
> that no additional measure is called for on the part of British
authorities
> to meet this demand for compassion.
>
> So far we had admired your unwavering support to the cause of
justice.
> Yet, as you now win Mrs Thatcher's approval, you may be
condemning
> Pinochet's victims and the relatives and friends of those he had
killed
> to renewed moral torture, in a most literal sense (cf. European
Court
> for Human Rights, case of "Kurt vs. Turkey" - 25 May
1998), a torture
> that has already lasted for 25 years and in some cases has gravely
> impaired the survivors' health.
>
> It still seems to us that the only possibility for Justice to be
done
> is for the former dictator to be tried in Spain. We would have
preferred
> a trial in Chile, but whatever the current government now claims, it
seems
> impossible under the present circunstances (cf. the report
produced by
> the International Federation of the Leagues of Human Rights - March
> 1999). Any suggestion that he should be tried either by the
International
> Penal Tribunal or in Chile is a dilatory move that would result in
removing
> him from the hold of European Justice.
> Besides, we cannot quite understand why he should be too frail to
stand
> a trial in Spain, but not to face a transtlantic flight and a trial
in
> Chile.
>
> We therefore trust that you will resume your former position and
> support the demand for Sr Pinochet to be tried. Human Rights are not
> patient of a third way. They demand Truth and Justice.
