Iranian fugitives' defense in AMIA case accepts trial in absentia, seeks guarantees

In Argentina's AMIA bombing case, defense lawyers for Iranian fugitives have not opposed trial in absentia but requested procedural guarantees, while victim families push to proceed. The 1994 attack killed 85 and injured hundreds; the case has been stalled for decades. This development could unblock a long-delayed judicial process, though the absence of the accused remains a key limitation.
