Pinochet soldier imprisoned for 53-year-old killing
Nelson Haase Mazzei, a retired Chilean colonel and former member of Pinochet’s secret police, was arrested in 2026 in the south of Chile for his role in the 1973 murder of folk singer Víctor Jara, who was killed shortly after Chile’s military coup. He had been a fugitive since 2023, when he and other retired soldiers were sentenced in absentia for the killing. The arrest marks the conclusion of a long justice process seeking accountability for Jara’s murder during Pinochet’s dictatorship.
