El Salvadorโ€™s former president charged over 1989 massacre of six Jesuit priests

 

Prosecutors in El Salvador have charged the former president Alfredo Cristiani over the 1989 massacre of six Jesuit priests that sparked international outrage.

 

Prosecutors also announced charges against a dozen other people, including former military officers, over the massacre. The list of charges will apparently include murder, terrorism and conspiracy.

 

The attorney general, Rodolfo Delgado, wrote on his Twitter account that his office โ€œis determined to go after those accused of ordering this regrettable and tragic eventโ€.

 

The former president, who served from 1989 to 1994, has denied any involvement or knowledge of the plan to kill the priests.
