Estela de Carlotto ,an Argentine activist who searches for people who were snatched as babies by the 1970s military junta has found her own grandson.
After a four decade search,the founder of Argentina's leading human rights group said that she had located the grandson taken from her daughter while a prisoner of the military dictatorship in the 1970s, one of the long-unsolved mysteries from the "dirty war" era that still haunts the country.
She found her grandson through DNA test.She says he came forward because he has doubts on his own family links.
Ms Carlotto's organisation, The Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo, was formed to reunite biological parents with hundreds of children born in prisons and torture centres. He was born to Ms Carlotto's daughter Laura in 1978 while the young history student and political activist was held by the military junta.
This would go into the human history as an example not to lose hope on anything.
