[O]n that occasion, on the direct orders of PASTOR CORONEL, the alleged escape of the said detainees from the Investigations Department was reported in the logbook […], when, in reality, the events took place principally as indicated above. […] This was a common practice used to cover up the disappearances of detainees who were executed; an act that, among the prisoners, was known as the ‘ley de fuga’ [the escape law]. 61(41) The disappearance of Carlos José Mancuello Bareiro corresponds to one of the modus operandi for forced disappearance used in Paraguay at the time. 61(42) The next of kin of Carlos José Mancuello Bareiro suffered as a result of his illegal detention and forced disappearance. They have also experienced psychological problems related to these facts, and were affected financially, because Carlos José Mancuello Bareiro represented a source of income for the upkeep of the household. The facts of this case have significantly disrupted the dynamics of Carlos José Mancuello Bareiro’s family.
