Bolivia Confirms Actions by Terrorists
La Paz - The Bolivian
government asserted on Monday that the
investigations about existence of violent
groups have confirmed the implementation of
plans to assassinate President Evo Morales
and divide the country.
An Interior Ministry communique, accessed by Prensa Latina, said
the Attorney General's Office issues an
early warning about the presence of an
extremist group, a cell of which was
neutralized on April 16 at Las Americas
hotel, in Santa Cruz.
"The investigations ratified that the
foreign and national members of the gang led
by Bolivian-Croatian Eduardo Rozsa Flores
and their relation to the attack on Cardinal
Julio Terrazas' house represented an extreme
danger," the communique said.
The document recalled that Rozsa, shot dead
when resisting his arrest, said in an
interview published by the Hungarian
television that he had the intention of
declaring Santa Cruz department's
independence in few months and creating a
new country in this region.
"In a video tape published by the Justice
Ministry, he expressed his intentions to
assassinate President Morales," the text
said.
The investigation and the statements by the
people involved and arrested have proved
that there was external support and internal
financing to develop those activities.
The communique also reported that Juan
Carlos Gueder, arrested days later together
with Paraguayan Alcides Mendoza, accepted
that he knew Rozsa and had sold him weapons.
Those involved identified citizens Hugo
Acha, representative of the Human Right
Bolivia Foundation, and Alejandro Melgar,
both currently at large in the United
States, as some of the relations among the
mercenaries and their sponsors.
The Executive said all these individuals
confirmed their terrorist,
violent,armed,andti-democratic and
separatist intentions of this dismantled
group.
It also rejected the statements by
opposition members to distract attention
from the actual events and their intentions
to prevent an Attorney General's Office key
witness from testifying.
Vice-minister of Coordination with Social
Movements Sacha Llorenti accused the
organization called Human Rights of
financing the violent actions by the
terrorist groups neutralized in mid April in
Santa Cruz. |
