 My name is Alfredo Samodio, the son of Alfredo Samodio. In 1970 there was a presidential election in Chile. My father was arrested, interrogated, beaten. He was sentenced to 11 years of prison. I went to see him and he told me he had received letters. The letters were communicating in a very respectful way, telling him the procedure to leave Chile. The whole thing started with a man called Roberto Cossack. He was a junior officer at the International Committee for European Migrations, which later became IOM. And he saw all the thousands and thousands of political prisoners that the regime had. And he saw what they were doing to them. He wanted to do a change. The IOM organized the logistics and then the date was set. We were going to leave Chile on September 15, 1976. No matter how bad the situation is, you can give people hope. You can change that situation in life. And that was what Roberto Cossack did. This was an out-of-return regime. He was a P2 person, perhaps a very low in the ranking, the national ranking. But he said, what if I do this? What will happen? And that changed my life.
