Judicial officials announced that they will investigate the death of President Salvador Allende for the first time, 37 years after the socialist leader was found shot through the head in the presidential palace.
Many believe Allende's 1973 death was a suicide but officials have never opened a criminal probe about it.
Popular legend, including that of his personal doctor, has Allende shooting himself with a machine gun Fidel Castro had given him, rather than surrendering.
