Bolivia to investigate rocket attack on Mexican plane carrying Evo Morales after coup d'état

La Paz, September 3 (RHC)-- Bolivia has demanded that Justice investigate the alleged rocket attack on the Mexican plane in which Evo Morales was flying after the coup d'état against him.

"This is a very serious issue, the Bolivian Justice has to investigate this, because the level of detail and information provided by the pilot is absolutely verifiable," said Thursday the Bolivian ambassador to the United Nations, Diego Pary, in an interview with Bolivia TV channel.

Pary, who at the time of the denounced facts served as the Bolivian Foreign Minister, was referring to an excerpt from the text of the book "A la mitad del camino" by the President of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, in which a report of the Secretariat of National Defense of that country is revealed.

The report states that the pilot of the plane -- in which the then Bolivian president Evo Morales was flying to Mexico -- took off in the early morning of November 11, 2019 from the airport of Chimoré, in Cochabamba.  The pilot observed from the left side of the cockpit a luminous wake similar to the characteristic of a rocket, which he managed to dodge.

After stressing that in addition to Evo Morales, a special envoy of the first Mexican president was traveling in the aircraft at that time, the Bolivian senior UN official reiterated that it is a very serious matter that must be investigated with "absolute clarity."
