# Bolivian corruption and narcoterrorism investigation > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/bolivian-corruption-and-narcoterrorism-investigation > Updated: 2026-10-09T18:06:18.000Z. Sources: 45. Developments: 2. Bolivian authorities have launched investigations into former Minister of Government Eduardo Del Castillo following allegations by Uruguayan drug trafficker Sebastián Marset. Marset reportedly claimed to have paid $500,000 monthly to Del Castillo and former Attorney General Roger Mariaca to facilitate criminal operations. Initial raids in La Paz targeted properties linked to Del Castillo, resulting in the seizure of documents and digital devices. These operations led to the detention of former Attorney General Roger Mariaca, while Del Castillo remains a fugitive. Subsequent police searches in the Villa Copacabana area of La Paz uncovered explosives, firecrackers, and a DEA passport at a residence linked to Del Castillo. Minister of Government Marco Antonio Oviedo stated the materials were intended for attacks against the population and noted the existence of a “narcoterrorist structure.” In response to the ongoing investigation, Prosecutor General José Armando Urioste has activated an Interpol Red Notice against Del Castillo. This legal action follows the release of an audio recording in which Marset allegedly refers to Del Castillo using the alias ‘Sonia’ and claims to have paid monthly sums to maintain operations. In addition to the Interpol alert, authorities have issued migration alerts and search warrants to locate the former official. ## Claims - The Prosecutor General has activated an Interpol Red Notice against former Minister of Government Eduardo Del Castillo.
