Argentina ex-leader Cristina Fernandez to go on trial
Source: BBC
A judge in Argentina has ruled that the former president, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, should stand trial on charges of financial mismanagement.
Ms Fernandez, 64, is accused of fraudulently administering state funds in 2015.
The former economy minister, Axel Kiciloff, and the former head of the central bank have also been charged.
Ms Fernandez, who governed from 2007 to 2015, said the case was politically motivated.
