On September 11, 1973, Chilean forces attacked, in a horrible, savage coordinated action the major cities in Chile. Agents of the state arrested Victor Jara and many others including Chilean, American, French, Spanish and Swiss citizens. Many thousands of people were herded into stadiums for interrogation. Without due process, that often resulted in death by firing squad. It happened to Professor Victor Jara.

Victor Jara was found dumped in a cemetary with forty-four bullets in his chest.
