The World - News from April 23, 1987

The Argentine government said that everything “appears perfectly normal” again after a week of military revolts and added that the army will be reorganized with the installation today of a new chief of staff, Gen. Jose Dante Caridi. Rebel officers mutinied at three camps to protest the army leadership and to demand amnesty for officers accused of torture and killing during the “dirty war” against suspected leftists carried out by former military juntas. Suppression of the revolts represented a triumph for the civilian government of President Raul Alfonsin.
