02/07/2017. Relatives and members of the Association for the Recovery of Historical Memory (ARMH) carry the coffin of Timoteo Mendieta who was assassinated in 1939 by dictator Franco's forces at a cemetery on July 2, 2017 in Madrid, Spain. General Franco forces killed Ascension's father Timoteo Mendieta in 1939 after Spain's Civil War and buried him in a mass grave in Guadalajara's cemetery together with another 22 people assassinated. Argentinian judge Maria Servini used the international human rights law and ordered the exhumation and investigation of Mendieta's mass grave. The exhumation was carried out by Association for the Recovery of Historical Memory (ARMH). Spain's Civil War took the lives of thousands of people on both sides, but Franco continued his executions after the war has finished. Spanish governments has never done anything to help the victims of the Civil War and Franco's dictatorship while there are still thousands of people missing in mass graves around the country.
