Socorro Juridico Arzobispado (IDHUCA) San Salvador records
Scope and Contents
The case files and the reports and publications received from Socorro Jurdico Arzobispado (IDHUCA) arrived in the form of loose paper in boxes. Post-it notes had been used to divide the loose paper according to months and years, but the post-it notes did not always indicate if the files represented asesinados, capturados, or desparecidos. Quite often the post-it notes had fallen off and were loose in the boxes.
There is considerable duplication of material in these files. The materials have been arranged as follows:
I. Case Files
- Topics: Asesinados; Capturados; Desaparecidos; Expediente; Libres; Otros; and Persecusion Represion
- "L" Case Files (from "Libros"?)
- "T" Case Files (from "Testimonios"?)
II. Reports and Publications
