Reading of the deposition of Oriana Sánchez Romero, mother of university student Maria Isabel Beltrán Sánchez, who was arrested in Chile on December 18, 1973, tortured and killed by military police, and whom the junta said had fled to Argentina with other extremists. The first three minutes provide historical background and context of missing persons in Chile, where "missing persons" are usually known or suspected to be in military custody, but whom the military denies holding. Read and produced by Paz Cohen.
