Late 1973
Clandestine amongst the city streets
Appeared a secret web... of torture penitentiaries
The apparatus of the disappeared
Invisible empire of the Dina
And concealed in Penalolen
Lies the central core of the torture prime
Military codenamed "Cuartel Terranova"
Victims knew it as Villa Grimaldi
Villa Grimaldi...
Villa Grimaldi...
For five years it stood a nameless veiled fear
Five thousand it consumed ... 226 disappeared
Victims of a cycle of torture in round the clock rotating shifts
Behind its black iron gates and blood red bricked walls
Concealing the brutality ... of villa Grimaldi
...Villa Grimaldi
...Villa Grimaldi
Blindfolded, bound and gagged
Brought through its black gates of pain
In falsely registered vehicles
Then led out and savagely bashed
Eyelids taped shut, cannot see their bludgeoners
Agonizing screams of pain and blood of prisoners forced into tiny cells...
...Villa Grimaldi
Running trucks over prisoners legs
Hanging victims on the ombu trees by their wrists
Forced immersion in vats of excretement
Torsos whipped with iron chains
Tourniquet suffocation whilst burning skin
Electrifying sensitive body parts
Metal bed spring bound electro-torture
The incessant Villa Grimaldi
This is Villa Grimaldi
This is the pain of Villa Grimaldi
Sexually abusing family members
In front of the prisoner's eyes
Inserting rodent's vaginally
Raping women using dogs...
...Villa Grimaldi...
The water tower...
The Dina adapted it with closet sized cells known as the "Chile Rooms"
The final gaol cell of the tortured
Their spent bodies served purpose no more...
They disappeared from VIlla Grimaldi...
Villa Grimaldi...
Villa Grimaldi...
Villa Grimaldi...
Villa Grimaldi...
