That's the way the scene was written, either in the original novel, or in the screenplay (which was attempting to criticize the US backed overthrow of Allende). I've never read either. Nor have I seen the full movie. I'm taking that information from articles I've read on the film, and on Carole Laure. The director (who also wrote the screenplay) had a political agenda. He wanted to depict the horrors of the post Allende regime, and he tried to make the scene as shocking as possible.
