Jara’s Killer Finally Arrested After 50 Years | Dover News
Description
After 50 years, justice finally closes in on Chile’s most notorious human rights violator: Nelson Haase Mazzei, the retired colonel convicted of kidnapping and murdering iconic musician Víctor Jara. Haase, 80, had evaded capture for three years and is now behind bars after a decades-long wait — the last of the convicted to be apprehended. Jara’s daughter Amanda acknowledges the arrest as a step, but insists it’s not enough. With Pinochet’s 17-year dictatorship leaving an estimated 40,000 victims, the hunt for those who escaped justice continues — and the world watches as Chile’s painful past slowly, painfully, begins to be reckoned with.
