Talking to the Jewish News Agency, AJN* AMIA’s president expressed his surprise and indignation for the appointment of Ahmad Vahidi as Defense minister.
“It is impossible for me to understand how a person who is wanted by Interpol for being involved in the AMIA case is appointed for such office. This is insulting and shameful.”
Attorney Alberto Nisman told this agency that “Vahidi has not only an arrest warrant submitted by the Argentinean Justice (against him), but he is one of those persons for whom the Interpol has a Red Notice.”
Nisman added that “If this proves to be true, the appointment wouldn’t be surprising to me: this is a regime that doesn’t bring the suspects of participating in the terrorist attack against AMIA to justice. It also protects them and appoints them for public offices”.
