Description

The hospital admission medical report of Juan Gabriel Rodrigo Knafo documents the injuries that caused his death after rushing into the void while fleeing from the police. This clinical document provides a direct and objective view of the physical consequences of the repression exercised during the labor protests of March 1976. Its inclusion in the judicial file makes it possible to understand the gravity of the facts and the lack of guarantees in the protection of fundamental rights. It is a fundamental piece for historical memory and for the denunciation of institutional violence in the post-Franco context.
