Chilean justice reopens the 'Neruda case', orders an Army doctor to be investigated and asks to review the report on the poet's death. The case had been closed without prosecutions last September.

An appeals court now decrees seven proceedings in a case that seeks to determine whether Neruda died of cancer or was poisoned by the dictatorship. The summary of the case, open for almost 13 years, was closed on September 25, 2023 by Judge Paola Plaza, who considered all the proceedings concluded and chose not to issue prosecutions.
