Alberto Nisman had arrest warrant for Argentina’s President when found dead

Alberto Nisman, 51, was found dead in his apartment on January 18 with a single gunshot wound to the head and no suicide note. It was hours before he was due to testify to Congress about the President’s role in allegedly covering up details of a 1994 bombing at a Jewish centre which killed 85 people and injured 200.

Lead investigator in the case of Mr Nisman’s death Viviana Fein confirmed the 26-page draft document calling for the arrest of President Kirchner and foreign minister Hector Timerman was found in the rubbish at Mr Nisman’s apartment.
