In Argentina, the former head of the army during Argentina’s dirty wars has been convicted of crimes against humanity and sentenced to life in prison. Eighty-nine-year-old Luciano Benjamín Menéndez was found guilty of presiding over hundreds of disappearances and kidnappings, as well as multiple cases of murder and torture, at a secret military base in Córdoba between 1975 and 1979. The imprisoned ex-general is already serving multiple life sentences for other human rights abuses.
