Caravan of Death
in october 1973, chilean dictator augusto pinochet organized the “caravan of death,” a military death-squad charged with eliminating perceived opponents of the military regime. flying a cross-country circuit by helicopter, the caravan of death landed at military bases throughout the country and tortured and summarily executed at least 75 political prisoners.
many of the victims of what became known as the “caravan of death” had voluntarily turned themselves into the military authorities. prisoners were taken from their cells and summarily executed, often without the knowledge or consent of the local military authorities.
