Argentine high court voids 'Dirty War' amnesties
THE high court declared the laws unconstitutional in a 7-1 vote with one
abstention, scrapping the amnesties that
ended trials for atrocities against leftists carried out under Argentina's 1976-83 military dictatorship.
A government report says 11,000 people either died or disappeared during a systematic crackdown by the military to snuff out dissent during the dictatorship. Human rights groups say the number is closer to 30,000.
The ruling marked a victory for human rights groups hoping for a renewed examination of the military's seven-year rule and highlighted a new political will under President Nestor Kirchner - who was held briefly by the military when he was a student - for investigating Dirty War-era abuses.
Dozens of human rights activists, including some gray-haired mothers who have led a decades-long search for many of "the disappeared" victims, cheered the decision outside the main Buenos Aires courthouse after it was announced.
"This is truly historic," said Tati Almeyda, a founding member of the human rights group Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo, which has led weekly marches to remember the missing. "I am absolutely overcome with emotion."
Other family members of the disappeared hugged each other and held aloft tattered black-and-white photos of their missing relatives. The decision came in the case of Julio Simon, a former police officer charged in connection with the disappearance of two Argentines and the adoption of their daughter.
Under Argentine law, the ruling was expected to serve as a precedent for other cases in the lower courts. Lawyers for human rights groups said the decision could also lead to new charges being brought against 300 to 400 military officers - many of them now retired - for military excesses.
Jose Miguel Vivanco, executive director of the Washington-based Human Rights Watch Americas, said he hoped the ruling could give impetus to other South American countries like Uruguay, Chile and Colombia, where amnesty laws now exist or are under debate.
"The Supreme Court's ruling shows that no matter how may years go by, laws that block justice for gross human rights abuses remain a thorn in the side of democratic governments," he said in a statement. After Argentina's return to democracy in 1983, many ranking military officers were tried on charges of rights violations against suspected leftist opponents and ordered imprisoned two years later. But after a series of military uprisings, former President Raul Alfonsin sought a pair of amnesties from Congress known as the "Full Stop" and "Due Obedience" laws in a bid to temper anger in the barracks.
The laws brought an end to the investigations of the military junta's top officials and protected lower-ranking officers from prosecution on the grounds they were legally forced to carry out orders from their superiors.
In 1990, then-President Carlos Menem issued a pardon for all military officials in an attempt at what he called "national reconciliation." Many of the junta's top leaders, including former Gen. Jorge Videla and Adm. Emilio Massera, are under house arrest on charges of kidnapping babies born to mothers held in captivity during military rule.
