Forensic anthropologists identify 12 bodies found in dictatorship detention center

The Argentine Team of Forensic Anthropology (EAAF, for its Spanish initials) has identified 12 bodies that were found during an excavation at the site where a  clandestine detention center known as La Perla operated during the dictatorship in the central province of Córdoba.

The bodies belonged to victims of the military regime who were presumably held at La Perla and remained disappeared until now.

The discovery was reported by Córdoba’s Federal Court n°3 and announced by the EAAF on Tuesday. The NGO said that information about the identity of the victims will be released by the court with the consent of their families after they are notified.
