Argentine prosecutor's death part of coup d'etat attempt -govt official
An Argentine prosecutor's mysterious death days after he made criminal charges against President Cristina Fernandez is part of an attempt to unseat her and bring neoliberals back to power, a senior government official said on Monday.
The comments by Gustavo Lopez, an undersecretary in the presidency, follow the death of Alberto Nisman on January 18 after he accused the president of derailing his investigation into a 1994 bombing of a Jewish community center.
Nisman's accusations and his death have rocked Argentina and sparked a myriad of conspiracy theories.
