Bolivia ex-defense minister accuses TSJ president of narco-ties in corruption case

Former Bolivian Defense Minister López publicly accused Supreme Court President Saucedo of being part of a 'clan of narco-tax collectors,' alleging Saucedo solicited bribes in exchange for freedom. The accusation, made during legal proceedings, escalates a corruption scandal implicating the judiciary, though no evidence has been presented. This marks a direct confrontation between a high-profile defendant and the head of the judiciary, potentially undermining public trust in Bolivia's judicial system.
