A group of Polish right-wing parliamentarians say they will travel to London next week to visit the former Chileran military ruler, Augusto Pinochet.

General Pinochet is currently under house arrest in Britain awaiting possible extradition proceedings to Spain on charges of torture and genocide allegedly committed during his seventeen years in power.

A member of the delegation Michal Kaminski said the group wanted to express its solidarity with General Pinochet and thank him for his fight against communism.
