Motion Text
That this House notes the death of Augusto Pinochet Ugarte, former dictator of Chile; regrets that he never faced trial for human rights abuses or the terror he caused in many countries in South America; notes that he also escaped prosecution on charges of corruption, tax evasion and cocaine smuggling; sympathises with the families of his victims; and hopes that prosecutions of Pinochet accomplices will continue.
