"Every people has the inalienable right to know the truth about past events concerning the perpetration of heinous crimes and about the circumstances and reasons that led, through massive or systematic violations, to the perpetration of those crimes. The full and effective exercise of the right to the truth provides a vital safeguard against the recurrence of violations."
