>> Cousins. As in related, of the same family. It's not difficult.
If that's what's meant than it is indeed not difficult. Any respectable historian could knock it down by reference to the antecedents of Alderman Roberts and his wife both of whom seem to be of solidly British stock. General Pinochet's parents were, according to Wikipedia, third or fourth generation Chileans. There seems no conceivable possibility of their parents being siblings or even of a more distant cousin-ship removed by generations.
The whole hypothesis seems absurd. So absurd that one might seek an alternative explanation such as that posited by myself and others that there could be a nuance of language/meaning.
