Buenos Aires, 30 August 2002
Esteemed and Respected Nelson Mandela:
I wrote you, to implore that you intercede on behalf of Chilean comrade Jaime Yovanovic Prieto (Professor J), so that he is not extradited.
He was arrested in Italy and deported to the Republic of South Africa, and is being held in a Johannesburg prison.
Your word and presence will surely provide protection for our friend.
Awaiting your invaluable help, receive my regards.
Hebe de Bonafini
President of the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo Association
