Mohsen Rezai has been on the official Wanted list of Interpol since March 2007 due to the attack.
The Argentine government has also come under criticism from the country's opposition for sending its ambassador to Nicaragua, Daniel Capitanich, to the event.
The attack on the Jewish community center occurred on July 18, 1994. A suicide bomber drove a vehicle loaded with 275 kilograms of explosives into the building. The attack claimed the lives of 85 people and injured hundreds more. The bombing is Argentina's deadliest terrorist attack to date.
