Trivia
Carolina Larriera wrote a piece in The Huffington Post criticizing the surprising lack of initiative on the part of the United Nations to look into an attack of such magnitude and bringing those responsible to justice even though Sergio had been an indispensable asset to the organization. She claims the bombing that killed him was never properly investigated and "the circumstances of the incident were buried under statues and memorial speeches." Larriera resigned from the UN in 2005.
