Alberto Nisman Warrant For Cristina Kirchner Arrest Found At Buenos Aires Apartment, Conspiracy?

Ever since news of the death of the Argentinean prosecutor came out, all over the world people have been aching to know the fate of the case, as many have blamed the government of Cristina Kirchner; now, Alberto Nisman's warrant for the arrest of the president makes matters even muddier.

The Kirchner government has been accused of murdering Nisman, as he was set to speak in Congress against the president the day he was found death - and now even more suspicions arise after officials found Alberto Nisman's warrant for the arrest of the president.

According to The Guardian, the Alberto Nisman warrant for Cristina Kirchner was found at the trash bin of his Buenos Aires apartment in trendy neighborhood Puerto Madero. What was found was a draft written in the past Argentine winter in June, in a 26-page report.

The Independent reports that there was a second Alberto Nisman warrant draft, requesting the arrest of Hector Timerman, the foreign minister in the country, who Nisman had also accused before of intercepting with justice over the 1994 bombing of a Jewish center in Buenos Aires, the largest terrorist attack the country has seen in its history.

Nisman had accused Kirchner and Timerman in the past of having been involved in derailing the investigation, as the prosecutor himself had been looking up into Iranian officers that had been thought responsible of the attack. Argentina has had strong ties to the Western Asia Islamic State in the past few years, during the Cristina Kirchner administration.

A decade ago, Kirchner's husband and then president, Nestor Kirchner, chose Nisman to investigate further on the case, after little had been found since the 1994 attacks.

According to the BBC, the Alberto Nisman warrant for the arrest of Cristina Kirchner and Hector Timerman was not part of the 300-page report that the prosecutor had submitted to Congress days before his death. In any case, both the president and the minister would have to have their immunity revoked by the legislative corps before being arrested.
