Have you looked into the - probably iranian - 1994 Buenos Aires attack at all? Years later the special investigator, a guy called Nisman, nominated by Nestor Kirchner, was found dead by a „headshot“, after uncovering some iranian-argentinian connections regarding the attack. (He was accusing the argentinian government to having been involved - if not in the attack itself, at least in some kind of cover-up.) Apparently Argentinians are still today debating if it had been a suicide or murder. One of the accused iranians, Ahmad Vahidi, just became minister of inner affairs in Iran.. Nobody was ever prosecuted for the attack.
