LA PAZ - Former interim president of Bolivia Jeanine Anez was detained early Saturday on charges of "terrorism, sedition and conspiracy" due to her role in the events of November 2019 that ended with the resignation of then President Evo Morales, said authorities.
"I inform the Bolivian people that Jeanine Anez has been apprehended and at this moment she is in the hands of the police," Government Minister Carlos Eduardo del Castillo tweeted Saturday.
The State Attorney General's Office ordered the apprehension of Anez and five of her former colleagues on Friday.
Television footage from the northern city of Trinidad showed that police officers and two prosecutors raided Anez's residence and arrested her.
There have also been arrest warrants issued for former military commanders Williams Kaliman and Sergio Orellana, and former police commander Yuri Calderon.
Morales agreed to quit the office in November 2019 after disputes over the October general elections prompted weeks of widespread protests in the Latin American country.
