Bolivia lawmaker alleges prosecutor extortion, proposes criminal code reform

Bolivian legislator Joadel Bravo publicly alleges that former prosecutor Mariaca extorted money from prosecutors, calling it an open secret, and proposes adjusting the Criminal Procedure Code to combat organized crime. The claim is based on off-the-record accounts and lacks formal denunciations, indicating systemic corruption within the Public Ministry. This matters as it signals potential judicial reform and political instability in Bolivia.
