Jorge Patricio Arancibia Reyes (born 17 September 1939) is a Chilean politician and lawyer, militant from Unión Demócrata Independiente (UDI).

He was aide-de-camp of the General Augusto Pinochet.[1]

In 2021, he was elected as a member of the Chilean Constitutional Convention.[2] Then, he caused controversy for being part of the human rights commission due to his past in the Pinochet dictatorship.[3][4][5]
