Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Sunday, 10 December 2006, 19:28 GMT Chile's Gen Pinochet dies at 91 Gen Pinochet celebrated his 91st birthday last month Chile's former military leader Augusto Pinochet has died at the age of 91. The general entered a Santiago hospital a week ago after a heart attack. He was thought to be recovering when his condition suddenly worsened on Sunday. Gen Pinochet seized power in a coup against an elected government in 1973. More than 3,000 people were killed or " disappeared " over the next 17 years. He was accused of dozens of human rights violations and tax evasion but never faced trial due to poor health. The hospital said Gen Pinochet passed away at 1415 local (1715GMT). http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6167237.stm Dasha: Ma/Me/Ve (not rectified, from http://www.astrotheme.fr/celebrites/recherche.php) CHILE dasha: Me/Mo/Ra/Ju/Ju  satva Jorge Angelino Rua da Sociedade Filarmónica Perpétua Azeitonense, 29 2925-598 Azeitão Portugal jorge.angelino mobile: Skype ID: +351963916784 jorge_angelino Add me to your address book...
