Disappearance definition
"Enforced disappearance involves the deprivation of liberty of a
person in whatever form, followed by concealment and refusal to
acknowledge the deprivation or to give information on his
whereabouts. Sometimes, the disappearance is a temporary
phenomenon in order to terrorize that may culminate with the
release of the victim, on other occasions, retention was only a
prelude to his assassination, followed by the disappearance of the
body thus difficult to establish the whereabouts of the person who
was responsible for his death. "
