Buenos Aires, July 27 (RHC)-- The umbrella organization of Argentina's Jewish community, the DAIA, said Tuesday it will ask a court to reopen a dismissed legal process against former President Cristina Fernandez for allegedly orchestrating a coverup to shield the culprits responsible for the 1994 attack on the Mutual Israeli Argentine Association.
In 2015, prosecutor Alberto Nisman — who was later found dead in his apartment in an apparent suicide — accused Fernandez, then-Foreign Minister Hector Timerman and other politicians of shielding the Iranian suspects in the case from prosecution. However, the complaint was dismissed by the National Chamber of Criminal Cassation because there was no evidence of criminal wrongdoing.
Last month, President Mauricio Macri received the head of the DAIA, Ariel Cohen, who asked the conservative leader “help” to reopen the case and Macri promised to provide him all legal resources in order to do so.
As part of the effort to reopen the case, Prosecutor German Moldes, a staunch opponent of Fernandez, is expected to reopen the case, even though he endorsed the decision to close the case last year.
In an interview with teleSUR last weekend, Fernandez said she has been victim of “an evident judicial prosecution” by the current government that has issued "indiscriminate complaints" against her and her family, but despite these attacks she said she does not fear a prison sentence.
