Chilean court upholds bail for Pinochet's relatives
A Chilean court today ordered the release on bail of General Augusto Pinochet’s widow, five children and former associates, two days after they were arrested on corruption charges.
Judge Juan Eduardo Fuentes said the three member-panel unanimously agreed to allow 23 relatives and associates of the former dictator to be freed and set bails ranging from US$200 to US$590. The appeals court ruling upheld Friday’s decision by a judge to grant them bail.
