9 Investigated in Argentina Terror Probe September 21, 2006 9 Investigated in Argentina Terror Probe By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Filed at 1:04 a.m. ET
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) -- A federal judge has opened an investigation of former Judge Juan Jose Galeano and eight others in connection with the allegedly botched probe of a 1994 Jewish center bombing that killed 85 people, authorities said Wednesday. Galeano, two former prosecutors, intelligence agents and others are under scrutiny in connection with Galeano's decade-long investigation into the worst terrorist attack on Argentine soil, the office of federal judge Ariel Lijo said. Andrea Santos, one of Lijo's assistants, said the judge was investigating whether any laws were broken during Galeano's probe. The investigation comes after years of complaints by critics claiming irregularities in the case. A van packed with explosives detonated in front of the Argentine Israeli Mutual Aid Association on July 18, 1994, killing 85 people and injuring 300 others in Argentina's worst terrorist attack. Jewish community leaders and others have suspected involvement of terrorists from the Middle East but no mastermind has ever been identified. Victims and their families have since become increasingly bitter. Four former provincial police officers and a used car salesman accused of supplying the van were acquitted in 2004 of charges that they had acted as a local connection in the bombing. Santos also confirmed published media accounts that Lijo would probe accusations that a key witness was bribed with state funds. Galeano, who led the bombing investigation from 1994 until he was forced off the case in 2004, was taken off the bench in 2005. <http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/world/AP-Argentina-Bombing.html?pagewanted= print> http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/world/AP-Argentina-Bombing.html?pagewanted=p rint _____ FAIR USE NOTICE: All original content and/or articles and graphics in this message are copyrighted, unless specifically noted otherwise.
