An Argentine court Thursday declared unconstitutional an agreement with Iran to probe the 1994 bombing of a Bue**s Aires Jewish center, with a final decision left to the Supreme Court. The government, which vowed to appeal, holds that Tehran was behind the attack on the Argentine Jewish Charities Federation, or AMIA, that left 85 people dead and 300 others injured two decades ago. "The ultimate interpreter of the constitution will be the Supreme Court," said Justice Minister Julio Alak. "The Argentinean court is denying a suitable opportunity to find the truth behind the AMIA disaster and resolve pertinent bilateral issues," spokeswoman Marzieh Afkham said in a statement reported by Iranian media.
