| | | | The proceedings initiated against Augusto Pinochet in Chile are interesting for different reasons. In particular, the transition towards a democratic regime, the independance of the judiciary and national reconciliation are the interests at stake in the Chilean Pinochet Case.

This law has not yet been abolished although Chile has been the subject of comments from the Human Rights Committee, the Committee against Torture and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights.
