Chile: court closes probe into ex-president Allende‘s death

A detailed report from an international team of experts concluded that Mr Allende had shot himself with an AKA rifle.
The gun was found between his legs and was „on automatic,“ said British ballistics expert David Pryor, who took part in the investigation.(..)
„The report conclusions are consistent with what we already believed. When faced with extreme circumstances, he made the decision of taking his own life instead of being humiliated,“ Ms Allende said.
