Two months ago, the case was officially classified as a murder&nbsp;by an Argentine judge.<\/p>\n<p>The online streaming platform is creating the miniseries in association with JWP, a Catalonian company&nbsp;specializing in crafting narrative documentaries and series.<\/p>\n<p>JWP producers want to interview Nisman\u2019s relatives and those who were at the scene when Nisman\u2019s dead body was found in his apartment on Jan. 18, 2015. They include former Argentine National Security Secretary Sergio Berni; prosecutor Viviana Fein, who investigated the case in the initial stage; and Nisman\u2019s&nbsp;security guards.<\/p>\n<p>Nisman\u2019s daughters, Iara and Kala, have already been <a href=\"http:\/\/exitoina.perfil.com\/2018-02-06-503437-la-miniserie-sobre-la-muerte-de-alberto-nisman-al-mando-de-un-director-ingles\/?_ga=2.113222148.1886544795.1518618462-840404270.1518618462\">interviewed<\/a>, according to the Spanish-language showbiz news website Exitoina.<\/p>\n<p>Nisman had accused Iran of sponsoring the AMIA attack and&nbsp;declared unconstitutional his country\u2019s memorandum of understanding with Iran to hold a joint investigation. His body was found hours before he was to present evidence to Argentine lawmakers that President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner covered up Iran\u2019s role in the attack.<\/p>\n<p>The Netflix miniseries could connect a global audience to the case, but isn\u2019t the first audio-visual project about the issue.
