The Bolivian Attorney General's Office has formally initiated criminal proceedings against former President Evo Morales and his former Vice President, Álvaro García Linera. The charges relate to the 2009 police raid on the Hotel Las Américas in Santa Cruz, an operation that resulted in three fatalities and is commonly referred to as the 'Terrorism Case.'
This legal action marks a significant development in the ongoing investigation into the state-led operation. The proceedings seek to address the circumstances surrounding the raid and the deaths that occurred during the incident, which has remained a point of political and legal contention in Bolivia for over a decade.
