Bolivian prosecutors formally charged former President Evo Morales with aggravated human trafficking and reactivated an arrest warrant against him. Morales, who governed Bolivia from 2006 to 2019, is accused of exploiting a minor with whom he allegedly had a child.
Sandra Gutiérrez, the departmental prosecutor of Tarija, confirmed the charges against Morales and Idelsa Pozo Saavedra, the alleged victim's mother. According to the complaint, Morales had a daughter with a 15-year-old girl when he was 57. It also alleged that he got in touch with her in exchange for political favors for her parents.
