But suddenly, as though taken by the wind, they disappeared. They were pulled from their houses, from work, from the university, or they waited to detain them in the silenced and solitary streets. Since then, they have ceased to exist, the slate was wiped clean as though they had never existed. We don't know how quickly they were silenced; there appeared Sthoughl to be one more order: to convert the disappeared into inhabitants of the silence and of the forgotten. Ther didn't want to give our relatives any human destiny, neither to live nor to die. But I to bel forever in doubt. (A female member of the Agrupacion, quoted in Vidal, 1982: 60)
