Criminal Record | Uncovering the Dark Truth About Augusto Pinochet's Reign @CriminalRecord_ | Uploaded September 2023 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
Augusto Pinochet was a military general who ruled Chile with an iron fist from 1973 to 1990. During his reign, Pinochet became known for his human rights abuses, political repression and corruption.
In the late 1980s, Pinochet's regime became increasingly unpopular due to economic turmoil and growing dissatisfaction with the regime's human rights record. In 1988, he held a national referendum to try to extend his rule for another eight years.
However, the referendum led to massive protests against his regime and galvanized opposition groups throughout Chile. Despite attempts to suppress the opposition, Pinochet was eventually forced out of power in 1990. His downfall was due in large part to the growing international pressure and economic sanctions against his regime, as well as the efforts of domestic opposition groups to organize and mobilize against him.
