Abstract:
On July 29, 2021, the Seventh Court of Guarantee of Santiago (El Séptimo Juzgado de Garantía de Santiago) reopened an investigation into whether the Banco de Chile helped the former dictator, Augusto Pinochet, launder money. It notified the Supreme Court of Chile of the reopening of the case and advised the bank, whose ownership is related to the Pinochet family, to set aside $103 million.[1]
