"Argentina's last dictator was convicted and sentenced to 25 years in prison for torture and kidnappings committed during the nation's 1976-1983 military regime.

Reynaldo Bignone, 82, was convicted along with five other former military officers for 56 cases involving torture, illegal detentions and other crimes in one of Argentina's largest torture centres, the Campo de Mayo military base.

Human rights groups said that of the 4,000 dissidents taken to the base, about 50 emerged alive."

Why were the people in Rome unhappy during Caesar's time?

The people as in the Plebians likely weren't unhappy during Gaius Julius Caesar's time. He was a populist, meaning that he addressed the needs of common people, often against the Senate's wishes. That is how he amassed his power, largely. The Senate was unhappy with him for this very reason. He was undermining their power by appealing to the people, and ignoring the Senate's demands. They felt he was gaining a lot of political clout unchecked. When he named himself dictator perpetuo (dictator for life), they were outraged at his audacity, and had him killed. Dictators were, by law, only allowed to be elected by the Senate and only in times of extreme distress for six months at a time, then had to step down. So for Gaius Julius to come in and name himself dictator with no approval, that was a big scandal. Thus, they had him killed. Edit: Just to claim this answer as my own, lol. I wrote it without being signed in.
