The death of Erwin Chávez, who was shot in the eye during the police repression of protesters in the Christ the Redeemer area, shocked not only the Santa Cruz population, but also former authorities. Such is the case of the former president of BoliviaCarlos D. Mesa Gisberth, opposition leader, who blamed the government of Luis Arce for the death of this citizen.
“My solidarity with the family of Erwin Chávez and with the people of Santa Cruz. This fact is the result of the decision of the government of Luis Arce that opted for repression and persecution against those who, in demand for rights and democracy, protest peacefully and legitimately,” he wrote on his social networks.
After the apprehension of the governor of Santa Cruz, the population took to the streets asking for the release ofand Luis Fernando Camacho, investigated for the ‘Golpe I’ case, but the leader of Santa Cruz remains in Chonchocoro.
The Government reported that Erwin Chávez died due to cardiac arrest, and they ask not to politicize the case.
