- FILE PHOTO 30AUG00 - Former Chilean leader Augusto Pinochet is seen in this file picture from August 30, 2000 while attending a religious service in Santiago. Three judges of a Chilean court opened a hearing December 7, 2000 on an appeal that seeks to block an order to place Pinochet under house arrest on charges of kidnap and murder during his 1973-1990 rule. Human rights laywers, despite not winning a postponement of the hearing, were confident that the appeal would be turned down and that the arrest order would be allowed to stand.
