Bolivia Terror Case Thickens
La Paz - Prosecutor
Marcelo Sosa, who is leading an
investigation into the Santa Cruz, Bolivia,
terrorist plot, has called four witnesses to
testify next Thursday in this capital.
According to a source of the Ministry of the
Attorney General, those called include
Ronald Alberto Suarez, legal representative
of the gambling company Corhat Bolivia,
which paid the Las Americas hotel costs for
the extremist group that was neutralized
last April.
The director of the Special Forces to Combat
Crime in Santa Cruz, colonel Miguel Gonzalez
revealed this new name of a person who
should testify together with businessperson,
Kathy Tabzuck and lawyer Alejandro Melgar
Pereyra.
Also called to testify is Eduardo Guitarte,
legal representative of the Aires Insurance
company based in Santa Cruz.
The armed group was led by Bolivian-Croatian
Eduardo Rozsa Flores, who died during the
operation together with two other cohorts
intending to destabilize the Andean nation,
according to other witnesses.
Their plans also included the assassination
of the Head of State Evo Morales and the
members of his cabinet during a meeting in
Lake Titicaca last April 3rd.
According to the prosecutor who heads this
case, these violent acts are also related to
Santa Cruz prefect, Ruben Costas and former
president of the civic committee, affluent
business person Branko Marinokovic.
The Bolivian members of the gang could be
tried for treason, he pointed out.
During the mid April operation against the
network the deaths are of the Bolivian
Hungarian Croatian Eduardo Rozsa, its leader
as well as Magyarosi Arpad
(Hungarian-Croatian) and Michael Martin
Dwyer (Irish).
Also detained are Mario Francisco Tadic
Astorga (Bolivian with a Croatian passport)
and El d Toaso (Hungarian), who are in
preventive prison in La Paz.
Days later Juan Carlos Gueder and Paraguayan
Alcides Mendoza were arrested. Both were
members of the Cruz Youth Union, shock
troops of the opposition in that eastern
region.
