Eleven Years After Nisman’s Death, Argentina Holds Tributes as Prosecutors Deepen Homicide Inquiry

Investigators are widening phone-record reviews and calling intelligence personnel to testify as early scene failures still hinder the search for the killers.

Overview

  • Federal authorities maintain the case as a homicide linked to Alberto Nisman’s AMIA work, with prosecutors citing a comprehensive forensic analysis and reaffirming the conclusion publicly.
  • Prosecutor Eduardo Taiano has expanded call-trace analyses, detected dozens of contacts with government offices in the hours after the death, and is taking testimony from hundreds of intelligence figures.
  • Taiano has sought to question former early-stage investigators, including ex-prosecutor Viviana Fein, over alleged irregularities that contaminated the apartment and compromised key evidence.
  • Five people remain processed in the case: Diego Lagomarsino for providing the gun and four former custodians on charges including aggravated cover-up and breach of duty.
  • Commemorations included a march to the Le Parc towers and separate AMIA and DAIA ceremonies where Sandra Arroyo Salgado and community leaders renewed calls for truth and justice.
