Colonia Dignidad: Behind the Gates

Colonia Dignidad was used as a torture centre during the military rule of General Augusto Pinochet in the 1970s and 1980s.
Thousands of children and young people are estimated to have been abused there.
The commune was set up in a remote area, about 350km (220 miles) south of the capital Santiago.
Protected by armed guards and dogs, it became a secretive anti-Semitic and anti-communist cult. -BBC, 2016
