The daughter of Gladys Castro and Walter Domínguez, both kidnapped in Mendoza in 1977 when Castro was six months pregnant, was born in captivity in March of 1978.
Although the identity of their daughter has not been made public, it was announced that it was confirmed through genetic tests that she was the child of disappeared parents just two days ago.
The Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo held a press conference earlier today during which the recovered grandchild’s grandmothers and a paternal uncle accompanied the organisation’s leader, Estela de Carlotto, who explained that the 117th grandchild “knew she wasn’t the biological daughter” of the couple who raised her and that she “immediately agreed” to get a DNA test done.
“Welcome granddaughter 117 and many more grandchildren!” said Carlotto.
