Chilean victims of German commune to be compensated


(MENAFN) Germany will pay compensation of around 10,000 Euros to victims of a notorious and abusive commune in southern Chile.

Colonia Dignidad was established by former Nazi soldier Paul Sch"fer in 1961.

The commune was run as a secretive faction and dozens of children were sexually abused there.

Hundreds of German and Chilean survivors will now be entitled for compensation.

The decision to pay the victims was made by a government commission in Berlin on Friday.
