Uruguayan Implications Confirmed in Repressive Condor Plan



Montevideo, April 18 (Prensa Latina) Carlos Osorio, director of the Southern Cone project at George Washington University''s National Security Archive, announced Thursday the upcoming publication of a key document on repression here in the 1970s.

Osorio pointed out that this is a confirmatory test dated July 26, 1976 in which it is stated that the Federal Police and the State Intelligence Secretariat (SIDE) of Argentina and the Defense Information Service (SID) of Uruguay dealt with prisoner transfers.

It refers to 30 Uruguayan members of the People's Victory Party (PVP), of whom 24 survived and were taken to clandestine detention centres in their country.

According to the Secret Police of the six dictatorships of the Southern Cone (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay) met in May 1976 in Santiago de Chile to create a 'new unit, called 'Teseo' aimed at exterminating leftists in Europe and Latin American countries.
