El Salvador court orders ex-prez Alfredo Cristiani's arrest over 1981 massacre

A court in El Salvador has ordered the arrest of former president Alfredo Cristiani for an alleged cover-up related to a civil war-era massacre of about 1,000 people. The "provisional detention" of Cristiani, whose whereabouts are unknown, stems from an amnesty he declared after the 1981 killings as part of a "personal cover-up." The order also calls for the arrest of four Cristiani deputies. The Mozote slaughter, considered the largest in Latin America, was perpetrated during the country's 1980-1992 civil war.
