El NacionalLO·BO · US·2 days ago
Bolivian prosecutors have seized over Bs 5.1 million and $407,000 in the Roma case, targeting four officials—Róger Mariaca, Martín Irusta, Alberto Zeballos, and Rubén Aparicio—for allegedly protecting drug trafficker Sebastián Marset. The seizures and investigations signal expanding corruption probes into state complicity with narcotics networks, though the officials' roles and the full extent of the scheme remain under investigation.
