A judge in Argentina who accepted a 2010 lawsuit against alleged crimes committed under the Franco regime in Spain wants to question 19 former officials in connection with the case.
The 90-year-old lady had traveled to Argentina two years earlier to ask the judge for help finding her executed relative.
The Buenos Aires judge wants to travel to Spain to take depositions from them between April 4 and 22.
The conservative Popular Party (PP) government also said that the statute of limitations had already been exceeded for the events under investigation and that some of the actions in question did not constitute crimes at the time of the dictatorship.
Antonio Carro, another former minister, signed the last execution warrants of the Franco regime in September 1975.
