The remains of Chilean President Salvador Allende (1970-1973) will be exhumed in the second half of May, according to a decision issued yesterday by the judge overseeing the case, Mario Carroza. Diligence, which must be performed by the Forensic Medical Service, not a new autopsy on the corpse of the socialist leader, but is designed to try to determine the cause of his death.
Allende died on September 11, 1973 during the military coup led by Augusto Pinochet to overthrow the socialist government, and so far the most accepted version, and corroborated by witnesses, who took his life in La Moneda, which burned after being attacked by the coup by land and air. His case is among 726 complaints of human rights violations during the military dictatorship that prosecutors presented on January 26 before Judge Chariot, for situations that have never before been investigated for justice.
April 12, Senator Isabel Allende, one of the three daughters of the late president, asked the judge to Float a new exhumation of the remains of his father and surveys to clarify the causes of death, but said the family is convinced that his father committed suicide. Elizabeth and her sister, Carmen Paz provided further blood samples to be collated during the review obituary.
Allende's body had been subjected before to two surveys thanatological: first in 1973 and the second in 1990 following the restoration of democracy, when it was exhumed to be buried in the capital.
