Arnoldo Camu Veloso (?—September 24, 1973) was a Chilean lawyer and socialist political activist. Camu was killed in the street, allegedly by Chilean government agents shortly following the 1973 Chilean coup d'état.[1][2] Camu was a member of the Political Bureau of the Socialist Party of Chile.[3]

Responsibility for a 1989 bombing which damaged windows and injured a security guard at the US Embassy in Chile was claimed by a group calling itself the "Arnoldo Camu Command".[4]
