A judge ordered Bolivia’s former interim President Jeanine Anez to four months of preventative detention for her role in the ouster of Bolivian leader Evo Morales in 2019.
Prosecutors have charged Anez – a conservative politician who took over as president after Morales was pushed to resign in October 2019 – and two other former members of her cabinet with terrorism, sedition and conspiracy. Morales and his allies say the events constituted a coup.
During a virtual court hearing due to the coronavirus pandemic, local media reported that judge Regina Santa Cruz on Sunday night backed prosecutors’ charges against Anez and ordered that she be placed in four months’ of detention and be sent to a women’s prison in the Bolivian city of La Paz.
