Santiago, Dec 30(ANI): A Chilean judge has shut the case regarding the death of former president Salvador Allende after a post-mortem report confirmed it as a suicide.
An international panel of experts convened by Judge Mario Carroza ruled that Allende killed himself with an AK-47, while defending the presidential palace in Chile's 1973 coup.
Carroza rejected the possibility that a soldier or bodyguard had killed him, The Daily Express reports.
Allende was among 726 people who died or disappeared when General Augusto Pinochet seized power in the military coup in 1973.
Carroza is hearing the cases anew after receiving orders from the country's Supreme Court.(ANI)
