Evo Morales Summoned in Sexual Abuse Investigation

Evo Morales, the former president of Bolivia, is embroiled in serious allegations involving the sexual abuse of a minor and human trafficking, with the Attorney General confirming a summons for him to testify on October 10. The accusations, brought forth by Minister of Justice César Siles, involve claims that Morales had a child with a 15-year-old girl during his presidency and purportedly created a network of young girls for sexual exploitation, labeled 'Generation Evo'. The case has gained traction after prosecutor Sandra Gutiérrez alleged she was dismissed for attempting to arrest Morales, which has led to further public outcry. Morales has responded, claiming the allegations are part of a politically motivated campaign aimed at undermining his potential candidacy for the 2025 elections. The situation continues to develop, with significant implications for Bolivia's political landscape as Morales remains a prominent figure. The investigation reflects broader concerns regarding abuse of power and accountability in Bolivian politics.
