Following a tough year for the Argentinean administration after a well-publicized fall into default, the latest Cristina Kirchner news put the President under the scope once again, as she's in the middle of conspiracy theories: a prosecutor who accused her of having ties to the biggest terrorist attack in Argentina history was found dead in his apartment.
Just hours before Alberto Nisman was scheduled to testify at a congressional hearing regarding a 1994 bombing to a Jewish center, the prosecutor was found dead in his apartment in Buenos Aires, making Cristina Kirchner's news grim and surrounded with doubt.
News outlet ABC.net.au reports that the latest Cristina Kirchner news has the controversial Argentine President under the scope of the international media, following the shady demise of Alberto Nisman, the prosecutor who had asked that there should be an investigation on Kirchner due to possible obstruction of justice; on the day of his death, Nisman was supposed to appear before a congressional hearing to provide evidence.
According to Raw Story, Nisman had been working on the case of the 1994 van bombing of the AMIA (Argentine Jewish Charities Foundation), which left 85 dead and 300 injured at the time, becoming the biggest act of terrorism the South American country has ever suffered.
Just last week, Nieman had asked the Congress to investigate further about the possibility of current President Cristina Kirchner having obstructed justice at the time of the deadly bombing, which has been linked to the Iranian government.
While the media is covering this widely as Cristina Kirchner news (as many point towards conspiracy theories regarding the death of the prosecutor), Yahoo! News reports that the top Argentine Security Secretary, Sergio Berni, stated that all evidence to Nisman's death pointed to suicide; however, many are raising eyebrows at this perspective.
Only time will tell how this Cristina Kirchner news evolve, as people around the world await for an autopsy; the Congress is also set to discuss the death of the prosecutor.
