Human rights violations characteristic of those in other Latin American countries such as kidnapping, [[torture]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_disappearance forced disappearance] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrajudicial_killing extrajudicial killing], were routine and systematic during the Stroessner regime. Following executions, many of the bodies of those killed by the regime were dumped in the Chaco or the Rio Paraguay. The discovery of the "[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terror_archives terror archives]" in 1992 in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambar%C3%A9 Lambaré] suburb of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asunci%C3%B3n Asunción], confirmed allegations of widespread human rights violations. | ||
Under Stroessner, egregious human rights violations and acts of [[ethnic cleansing]] were committed against the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ache Ache] Indian population of Paraguay's eastern districts. The Ache Indians resided on land that was coveted by foreign multinationals and had resisted relocation attempts by the Paraguayan army. The government retaliated with massacres and forced many Ache into slavery. In 1974 the UN accused Paraguay of [[slavery]] and [[genocide]]. During his regime Stroessner also sheltered many exiles including Nicaraguan dictator [[Anastasio Somoza Deybale]], Argentine dictator [[Juan Perón]], and [[Nazi]] scientist [[Josef Mengele]]. | Under Stroessner, egregious human rights violations and acts of [[ethnic cleansing]] were committed against the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ache Ache] Indian population of Paraguay's eastern districts.
