Madam, - The denunciation by Amnesty International's Sean Love of Augusto Pinochet's 17-year reign of terror, which killed or "disappeared" over 3,000 people and imprisoned and tortured many more, is admirable (December 19th).
I would hope he reserves even greater vituperation for Fidel Castro who, in his 47 years in power, has killed 70,000 people in his prison state, jailed and tortured many more and wrecked Cuba's economy. At least Pinochet's capitalist policies left Chile the strongest economy in South America. - Yours, etc,
TONY ALLWRIGHT, Killiney, Co Dublin.
