JOSÉ ADOLFO GAMONAL SUÁREZ (15 years old) ⚡️Temuco, 1973 ⚡️ Child with intellectual disability. No militancy.

In the early morning of December 22, 1973, military troops went to José’s house and took him into custody for allegedly stealing crockery. José insisted that the crockery was from his grandmother’s house. In spite of the family’s clarifications in favor of the minor and the fact that José had an intellectual disability, they took him away in a military vehicle to an unknown destination. That same day his relatives began their search for him without results.
