Abdala’s family questions his request that the father not be included in reparations

The family of Pablo Abdala questioned the request of the president of INAU so that his father, Carlos Abdala – an ambassador murdered by mistake in 1976 in Paraguay – is not contemplated in the bill for reparation for victims of armed groups that was voted last week passed in committee of Deputies.

“It does not represent the will of the family. Neither that of my mother, nor that of my younger brother Álvaro, nor mine”said to The Observer his older brother Carlos, who is a lawyer and former director of Exprinter Casa Financiera.

Pablo Abdala, former white deputy and current president of INAU, had personally contacted the Constitution commission that approved the project – which will be voted on in a plenary session of Deputies next week – so that his father is not included, given that his name He appears on the lists of victims of sedition that the current legislature uses as a reference.

This list consists of the same one that Jorge Batlle’s government sent to Parliament at the time, and the one that later also sent to the legislature – with the signature of the ministers Danilo Astori, Daisy Tourné and Azucena Berrutti – the first administration of Tabaré Vázquez, which included the initiative formulated by former deputy Daniel García Pintos.

Beyond the tragedy – whose effects we continue to suffer today, it is the worst thing that happened to me in my life – I understand that it occurred in another context: my father was not a victim of sedition“Pablo Abdala had said to The Observer. The hierarch had added that he does not have “nothing to claim from the State”.

His brother Carlos criticized this position, which the pro-government deputies used to introduce in the newsroom the possibility of excluding from the lists of victims “cases that manifestly do not meet the criteria.” “It caught my attention that it was legislated at the request of a party. It made noise for the rest of the family. This way of handling it calls my attention as a lawyer and as a teacher, things are not handled that way at the legislative level,” Carlos Abdala questioned. , who pointed out the access of his younger brother to make the request for being a politician with a long career.

“The will of the family is to be what corresponds. We neither claim anything nor amputate anything. We stick to the background of the will of the project of Batlle and Tabaré (Vázquez), the old man (his father) was always included. Whether he will be there now or not, we don’t know. But we did not take steps in the two previous governments nor are we going to do it now,” he said on behalf of the family.

On the other hand, Carlos Abdala recalled that his mother (now 92 years old) received a pension that due to the different ages within the family, “some received something and others did not.” “Her children were charging it to the extent that they were minors. And when it was approved I was already 18, there are different situations within the children themselves,” he added as a secondary detail.

Carlos Abdala (father) was assassinated in June 1976 when he was serving as Uruguayan ambassador in Asunciónwhen the Croatian separatist Jozo Damianovic mistook him for the Yugoslav diplomat Mancilo Vucekovic as he was leaving the Paraguayan Ministry of Finance.
