Subsequently, they moved to another province, where her husband worked in the San Martín Hospital, which he had just left when he was disappeared. The witness described the measures taken to find her husband, filing a “report before the Police, then resorting to the courts [… but] the results were unsuccessful […], the Paraguayan authorities never responded to” her. She “was never able to find him.” Mrs. Benítez Feliu de Goiburú declared that her husband “was the pater familias and, consequently, the one who supported the family.” Following his disappearance, the family used up “all their savings. [Her] children had to abandon their education and their life projects for many years. [Only her] son, Rogelio, could complete his professional studies with an incredible sacrifice, enduring poverty and the lack of essentials.” She also stated that her husband was very emotional and sensitive, affectionate, but responsible and with strong opinions about the correct education of his children.” The witness stated that Dr. Goiburú’s disappearance “has affected [her] physically and emotionally”; to such an extent that she “even lost her memory and the ability to talk.” She also indicated that she suffered from “other physical problems that could be attributed to what she had suffered. The witness’s children “lost their appetite, abandoned their education [and] had difficulty in relating to their friends.” In addition, she stated that she is “in despair because she does not know what happened to [her husband] and his remains.” She indicated that this causes them “anguish, despair, traumas, fear, illnesses, total depression.” The witness said she wanted the State to compensate them for the violations and “abuse of power suffered by [her] family and, in particular, [her] husband.” She also indicated that she “would like a human rights course [to be introduced] in schools and colleges,” and that hospitals bearing her husband’s name should be established to provide free medical care. She also “hopes that the expenses will be reimbursed so that [her] seven grandchildren can study.” (c) Julio Darío Ramírez Villalba, brother of Rodolfo and Benjamín Ramírez Villalba Julio Darío Ramírez Villalba declared that his brothers were “democrats, members of the Colorado party, and that they sympathized with […] MOPOCO.” He stated that his brother Benjamín was detained when he was “visit[ing] his companion, Magdalena Galeano, and that his brother Rodolfo was detained in the province of Formosa, in Argentina. He stated that both of them “were tortured in the worst possible way while they were detained in the Investigations Department, with electric cattle prods, and submerged in a small tank until they became unconscious; they were beaten with clubs, kicked and punched, their nails were pulled out with pliers, [and] they suffered all the types of physical and mental abuse that a human being can imagine.” He declared that, as stated by other witnesses and former political prisoners, “the ‘ley de fuga’ [the escape law] was applied to [his] brothers; in prison argot, this means they were murdered or executed.” The witness stated that “when [he] heard that [his] brothers had disappeared, [he] visited several public institutions, [accompanied by his mother, but] neither [he nor his] family ever received an official response from the Paraguayan authorities about
