The senators of the Movement Towards Socialism (MAS), Lindaura Rasguido and Leonardo Loza, announced that they will ask the Prosecutor's Office for a report on the departure from the country of the former commander of the Armed Forces Sergio Orellana, who has two arrest warrants against him for the coup d'état and the post-electoral conflicts in Huayllani.
"There are people who have done so much damage to the country, and it has to be clarified (...), they will have to inform us, not only the legislators but all the Bolivian people (...), be they military, police or politicians, they will have to render accounts in a transparent and timely manner to the Bolivian people," said the former coca growers' leader Loza.
The legislator regretted that former authorities involved in the events of October and November 2019 had left the country without being accountable to the justice system.

"Those who are involved, stained with the blood of the people, have to answer to justice and the Bolivian people, not in Colombia or in another part of the world, but in Bolivia," Loza assured.
