Bolivian Prosecutor Alleges Mariaca Received $500K Monthly in Drug Trafficking Case

Bolivia's prosecutor's office has formally charged Mariaca, Alberto Zeballos, Rubén Aparicio, and Martín Irusta with drug trafficking and criminal organization, alleging Mariaca received monthly payments of $500,000. The charges are part of an ongoing investigation, but details remain unverified and the accused have not yet responded publicly. This development signals potential high-level corruption within Bolivian institutions, though its broader political or market impact is limited.
