Bolivian police officer sentenced for 2017 Eurochronos shooting; trial of others begins

A Bolivian police officer has been sentenced to imprisonment for shooting a jewellery store employee during the 2017 Eurochronos incident, leaving the victim with a bullet lodged in his body. The trial of other officers involved, who remain free and on duty, has commenced. This marks a rare judicial outcome in a case that has dragged on for nine years, but the broader accountability of the police force remains uncertain.
