A judge of Buenos Aires, Maria Servini of covered, the same who investigates the crimes of the Francoist regime, has accused this Thursday to marriage that raised the grandson of the president of Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo, Estela Barnes de Carlotto, for having allegedly stolen in the last military dictatorship in Argentina (1976-1983). It has also been accused the doctor July Sacher, contained in the act of birth of Ignacio Guido Montoya Carlotto, formerly called Ignacio Hurban, in which it was reported that the baby was born 37 years ago was the natural son of peasants Clemente Hurban and Juana Rodriguez. In fact, hardly was born, the child was stolen from the arms of his real mother, Laura Carlotto, disappeared, just as the father of Ignacio Guido, Wilmar Montoya.

Laura Carlotto, daughter of the president of Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo, was a militant of the peronist Montoneros guerrilla, as Wilmar Montoya, and was illegally detained in the center of the Cacha, near La Plata, when she gave birth in 1977. The military took the baby and gave it to their family, as part of a systematic plan of theft of 500 children of missing that has already been sentenced by the courts. One or two days after its birth ended in Olavarria, 300 kilometers south-west of the Silver. Several witnesses have reported that a businessman with a medium named Carlos Francisco Aguilar, cousin of military political, received the baby and handed him over to the marriage of rural laborers who cared for his farm and that he could not have children of their own, were Clemente Hurban and Juana Rodriguez. The act of birth of Ignacio Hurban, now calling itself Ignacio Guido, the addition of the name that gave him his real mother, informing him that the child was born in the house that Aguilar, who died last March, was in the center of Olavarria, who was the son of its employees, and Sacher, doctor of the Buenos Aires Police, had attended the birth.


Ignacio Guido learned that he was adopted last June 2, at his last birthday, and the following month became the DNA analysis to check if he was the son of disappeared persons, such as other cases of children born between 1975 and 1980. In August it was confirmed that it was nothing less than the grandson of a woman who has led the struggle for decades to recover the stolen babies, a news that shook all of Argentina.

The young has defended the marriage who has raised him to point out that the continues to love us and that has had with them a happy life. It has also questioned the authenticity of the signature of Clemente Hurban contained in the act of birth. His grandmother, de Carlotto, has recognized that any person who registers for foster children as natural is committing an offense of appropriation, but has said that in this case, the culture and the relationship of the pawns with your employer may alleviate the guilt of the marriage. But the judge said to Clemente Hurban and Juana Rodriguez and even last week stated in the Radio Mitre that Carlotto and his grandson sought to avoid the charge: "I suppose they want to divert the investigation so that do not touch the father of upbringing, as they call them. For me, are apropiadores until i prove otherwise. If i demonstrate, they are not". Servini cited other known cases in which those who registered themselves as sons of missing ended up prisoners by subtraction of children: "The father (adoptive for deputy Victoria) Donda is stopped and it seized in Juan Cabandie (another member) received a sentence of 17 years". It clear that the apropiadores of Donda and Cabandie were members of the security forces, clearly knew the origin of children, while there are doubts that the marriage of rural laborers who still live in the middle of the field, in the estate of the sons of Aguilar, was aware of that. Servini also suspects the doctor who has been forbidden to leave Argentina. The lawyer of Sacher has defended in court arguing that the act of birth figure the name but not the signature of your customer. Yet none of the three accused has been summoned to testify, nor governed an arrest warrant against them.
