The Venda Sexy is an estate near Santiago, Chile that was used as a torture center by the DINA secret police during the military dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet.^[1]

Description of the estate[]

The house was divided in three floors and it was surrounded by a garden. The estate acted as a prison between September 1973 and November 1975.

It was called Venda Sexy for the sexual abuse that the inmates suffered during the detention. Another name that was given to the estate was La Discothéque for the music that was played when the inmates were tortured.

The concentration camp was used for a different purpose from that of Villa Grimaldi.

In 1974 numerous members of the leftist guerrilla group MIR were interned in the camp.
