Hi
The four were released with a stern warning not to inform .
anyone regarding their interrogation. Arana and Licceri,
were described by Father Giustozze as physically and men-
tally "destroyed" by their experiences, called on the
priest for aid in leaving the country.
Concentration Camp Report
Father Giustozze referred to the account circulating in
human rights circles in Buenos Aires that the twenty-four
DAM prisoners who recently appeared in Villa Devoto Prison
had been held in a large concentration camp with seven
hundred individuals in the Banfield Quilmes area. The
Father, whose parish is in that general area, stated that
he has received in the last year a number of reports of
sightings of irregular prisoners doing manual labor at an ai:
force facility located in the Banfield area near the La
Plata River. The air force facility is a large one and
prisoners are stated to be held in the restricted area of
the repair facility.
(NOTE: The Argentine Air Force operates a regional main-
tenance depot at Quilmes. The complex consists of a dirt
airstrip, several small-to-medium size maintenance buildings
hangars, and associated administrative facilities.)
