Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo are more of a 'stolen' baby for the Argentine dictatorship

Another child kidnapped by the military government of Argentina (1976 - 1983) was identified, reported the organization Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo.

DNA tests confirmed that a woman, now about 30 years, was the daughter of activist Gladys Castro and Walter Dominguez, Communist Party Marxist Leninist members of Argentina.

Both lived in the city of Mendoza (north) and were captured in the house where they lived in 1977. At the time, Gladys was six months pregnant and gave birth in prison the following year. Gladys and Walter were never seen again.

According to the NGO, more than 300 people who were stolen as a baby or children by the military regime and have not yet been identified.


The kidnapping of babies was part of a plan of the Argentine dictatorship and occurred in a systematic way, according to human rights groups.

The goal was to give the children of people who the government considers subversive military families and their allies. In the logic of dictatorship, this would avoid that were created another generation than the military believed the radical left.

Award for fight
The Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo organization was founded in 1977 with the goal of finding the stolen children and adopted illegally during the military government.

Over the years and many protests and struggles, the NGO managed to many fruits.

One of them occurred in 2014, when the grandson of Estela de Carlotto, the president of the NGO, was identified after more than 30 years of searching.

For many, the identification of Guido was as a prize for Estela struggle of life. He underwent DNA testing on their own, after suspicious of his true identity.

The daughter of Gladys and Castro is the 117th person to be identified by the NGO.

The group has a large genetic database of families of victims of the dictatorship. It was from this database that separate babies from birth parents - and now with over 30 years - were located.

The organization usually run ads in newspapers, TV and radio encouraging people with doubts about their identity to seek NGOs and carry out the site and perform the DNA test.

It's so heartbreaking to read this.

this is good news, also agree with: "It's so heartbreaking to read this."

Thousands of others may never be found. At least the Falklands War brought down that vile junta.
