The trustee of a bankrupt bank in Bolivia who died after falling from the 15th floor of an office building killed himself, a forensic investigation concluded Wednesday, casting new doubts on a case that has gripped Bolivia amid accusations of a cover up and as the country faces an economic downturn and President Luis Arce grapples with corruption accusations.
“We have investigated all hypotheses and have scientifically and technically demonstrated that the death of Carlos Alberto Colodro was a suicide,” Government Minister Carlos Eduardo del Castillo said Wednesday in a news conference. “The cameras show Mr. Colodro entering the 15th floor completely alone.”
