Disappearance

edit

Cacabelos was detained at the age of 17 by armed men, along with her brother José, while she was in a coffee shop on the Dorrego and Corrientes streets in Buenos Aires. Both were later transferred to the clandestine detention center of the Navy Petty-Officers School (ESMA).[1][2][3]

Her case was mentioned during the final indictment of the Trial of the Juntas in 1985 by deputy prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo.[4]

On 29 June 2013, a commemorative tile in honor of Cecilia was placed at Avenida Corrientes 6195, in the neighborhood of Chacarita.[5]
