The president of the upper house, Adriana Muñoz, indicated that they seek to “collect in a historical memory, in a text, all the testimonies that as Commission on Human Rights we received last year in all the multiple sessions organized” in the framework of the social outburst.

“It is unacceptable the silence of the state, it is unacceptable that in a democracy this repression and rape will occur to people who legitimately mobilize in social protest,” Senate President Adriana Muñoz (PPD) said, after announcing that a working table will be formed to seek “reparation” for “victims of human rights violations” during the social outburst. This would be, as explained by the Parliamentarian, a task in conjunction with the Commission on Human Rights of the Upper House, in order to “charge us with collecting in a historical report, in a text, all the testimonies that as the Commission on Human Rights we received last year in all the multiple organized sessions”, she said. In short, Muñoz raised that they hope to “make a general law of reparation in order to make this never happen again(…) we want an account of our entire society that never again in Chile can happen in these kinds of human rights violations, let alone in a democracy that cost us so much to conquer and rebuild,” He said, as consigned by Cooperative.
