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.
