Chilean justice orders the reopening of the investigation into the death of poet Pablo Neruda. Neruda died on September 23, 1973, twelve days after General Pinochet's putsch against the socialist president Salvador Allende.
The dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet left some 3,200 dead and more than 38,000 people tortured. International experts unanimously rejected the official version of the military regime in 2017. But they could not confirm or exclude the possibility of voluntary and deliberate contamination by the injection of germs or bacterial toxins.
