Buenos Aires Times | Human Rights Watch: Bolivia case against Morales is politically motivated
Terrorism charges against former Bolivian President Evo Morales appear to be politically motivated and are part of a wider campaign by Bolivia's interim government to use the justice system against political opponents, Human Rights Watch said Friday.
The rights group released a report alleging violations of judicial procedures, including baseless charges and arbitrary use of pretrial detention, after interim President Jeanine Áñez took power following Morales's ouster in November 2019. A similar pattern of judicial abuses occurred during the administration of Morales, the group said.
