Argentine prosecutors appeal dismissal of case against president

Argentinian prosecutors say they have appealed a judge’s decision to dismiss their case against President Cristina Kirchner for allegedly protecting Iranian officials accused of orchestrating a 1994 bombing.

Prosecutors are seeking to relaunch the case against Kirchner that was being brought by their late colleague Alberto Nisman, who died mysteriously on January 18 after accusing the president of shielding high-ranking Iranians suspected of ordering the deadly bombing at a Buenos Aires Jewish center.
