Supports. Several sources give his death date as 28 December 1959 in Madrid, which matches the claimed year of 1959.[1][2][3][4]
Supports. Sources state he was shot in an assassination attempt in Buenos Aires in April 1957 and died in Spain from complications of those wounds, which is consistent with being killed by the attack.[1][2][3][4][5]
Context. The shooting took place in 1957, and the sources do not use the word 'murdered' explicitly, so the characterization of his death as a murder rests on the assassination attempt leading to his death.[1][3][5]
