阿根廷法医人类学小组已确认，在图库曼省瓦尔加斯坑发现的遗骸属于卡洛斯·拉斐尔·梅迪纳，他是该国1976年至1983年军事独裁时期的受害者。该地点是阿根廷已知的该时期最大秘密埋葬地。

阿根廷法医人类学小组（EAAF）已确认，在北部图库曼省的一个大规模乱葬岗——瓦尔加斯坑出土的遗骸中，有卡洛斯·拉斐尔·梅迪纳的遗骸，他是该国1976年至1983年军事独裁时期的受害者。该地点被认为是阿根廷已知的该时期最大秘密埋葬地。
Argentina's Forensic Anthropology Team (EAAF) has identified the remains of Carlos Rafael Medina, a victim of the country's 1976-1983 military dictatorship, among those recovered from Pozo de Vargas, a mass grave in the northern province of Tucumán. The site is considered Argentina's largest known clandestine burial ground from that period.
据信，在独裁统治期间，数百人在此地被杀害并秘密掩埋，当时数千名政府反对者被拘留、酷刑折磨并杀害，这一运动后来被阿根廷法院和人权调查人员记录在案。法医小组已花费数年时间发掘并鉴定从瓦尔加斯坑出土的遗骸。
Medina is among hundreds of people believed to have been killed and secretly buried at the site during the dictatorship, when thousands of government opponents were detained, tortured and killed in a campaign later documented by Argentine courts and human rights investigators. Forensic teams have spent years exhuming and identifying remains recovered from Pozo de Vargas.
这一身份确认进一步推动了阿根廷法医科学家和人权团体长期以来为独裁时期受害者确认身份、将遗骸归还亲属所做的努力。与该时期相关的案件仍在阿根廷法院审理中，法院已判决多名前军方官员因杀人罪名成立。
The identification adds to a long-running effort by Argentine forensic scientists and human rights groups to account for victims of the dictatorship and return their remains to relatives. Cases tied to the period continue to move through Argentine courts, which have convicted a number of former military officials over the killings.
