Controversy: Cristina Kirchner displays the book 'Who Killed Nisman?' in her library

The dissemination of a photograph of the library belonging to convicted former president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, taken as part of a campaign promoted by Fuerza Taxi —a group of taxi drivers aligned with Kirchnerism—, sparked a new political controversy.

What began as a gesture of support by sending her a t-jersey with the slogan calling for her judicial release turned into a broader debate after people observed the objects that make up the former president's personal environment.

The image, which quickly went viral on social media and was shared by various national media outlets, shows the leader wearing the garment gifted by the movement.

However, the focus of the discussion was not the clothing, but the visible items in her library. There, people identified busts of tyrants such as Fidel Castro and Hugo Chávez, statuettes of Kirchner herself in different poses, and, in a central spot on the shelf, two items that particularly drew attention: a copy of the book "¿Quién mató a Nisman?" by journalist Pablo Duggan next to a statuette of her raising her hand, and a work commemorating Italian dictator Benito Mussolini.

Prosecutor Alberto Nisman was found dead on January 18, 2015, one day before he was to present in Congress a complaint against Cristina Fernández de Kirchner for covering up Iranian officials linked to the AMIA bombing. The judicial case revealed multiple irregularities and expert reports that dismissed the initial suicide hypothesis, maintaining that it was a planned homicide.

Various analysts and opposition sectors point to Cristina Kirchner as the political figure responsible and direct beneficiary of Nisman's death. His complaint threatened to seriously implicate her government, and his death eliminated the main accuser. The presence of the book "¿Quién mató a Nisman?"in her library next to the controversial statuette rekindles suspicions about her role in that crime.

The placement of the book behind a statuette of Kirchner herself, depicted with a raised hand, was noted by numerous social media users as a suggestive staging. Neither the convicted former president nor her government collaborators clarified whether the placement of both items was intentional.

The incident fueled speculation about a symbolic gesture toward the deceased prosecutor and about the use of objects linked to historical figures with strong ideological significance.

Although there was no official statement from Cristina Kirchner or her associates regarding the arrangement of the library, the photograph consolidated the controversy surrounding her figure.

The episode once again connected her name with Nisman's death, a case that marked a turning point in Argentine politics and still resonates in public opinion. The combination of a book about the prosecutor and another honoring Mussolini in the same space ultimately fueled criticism.
