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.” ~~Investigations continue~~ In response to ~~locate~~ the ongoing investigation, Prosecutor General José Armando Urioste has activated an Interpol Red Notice against Del Castillo.
