‘What if there was a suicide letter in the safe deposit box?’

Chief of staff Aníbal Fernández brought up some questions regarding the raid ordered by prosecutor Fein at the house of Sara Garfunkel yesterday, saying investigators should have had access to the place sooner.

According to Fernández, the raid – which resulted in the finding of a .22 gun registered under Alberto Nisman’s name, same type of the weapon that ended with the life of the victim -, should have been carried out “immediately” following Nisman’s death and not now, “three days ahead” of marking three months since the mysterious way in which the prosecutor was found with a gunshot to his head in the bathroom of his apartment back in January.

The head of ministers talked to reporters upon his arrival at the government house this morning questioning as well the fact that Nisman’s mother Sara Garfunkel allegedly removed things from a safe deposit box her son had.

“What if in the box there was a suicide letter? What if there were in the box elements that prove there are creditors or debtors to cause the situation in which the prosecutor was?”

For Fernández, it is “noteworthy” Ms. Garfunkel accessing the safe deposit box at the same time she was mourning her son, who “had not yet been buried” by that time.

“The mourning was no respected by the mother (Garfunkel) who practices the Jew faith, by attending the bank and take things away from the box,” the cabinet chief told media and renewed his criticism of Judge Sandra Arroyo Salgado, the ex wife and mother of Nisman’s two daughters, who has been long questioning the way prosecutor Fein conducts the investigation.

“She has not stopped in putting spokes in the wheel everyday for the investigation to stop,” the ex senator said.
