BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) - A federal court in northern Argentina has detained 10 former state security agents — including four army colonels — for prosecution in connection with a 1976 massacre, the government news agency said.
The officials were taken into custody on charges of complicity in the Dec. 13, 1976, killings of 17 political prisoners near the Chaco province capital of Resistencia, the Telam news agency said.
In addition to the colonels, two lieutenant colonels, a major, a first lieutenant and two province officers are being held, it said.
