Prosecutor Is Found Dead

Alberto Nisman is found dead of a gunshot wound to the head in his 13th-floor luxury apartment in Buenos Aires on Jan. 18. His door had been locked from the inside. A .22-caliber pistol is found near his body. There is no suicide note.

Days earlier, Mr. Nisman had accused President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and top Argentine officials of trying to cover up a deal to shield Iranian officials from responsibility in the 1994 bombing of a Jewish community center in Buenos Aires that killed 85 people.

“I might get out of this dead," Mr. Nisman was reported to have said the day before he died.
