Unknown people blew up a stick of dynamite in the building where Bolivian President-elect Luis Arce was located. This was reported on Thursday by the press service of the party “Movement to Socialism”, of which the politician is a member.
“Sebastian Michel, a spokesman for the Socialist Movement, said that several people attempted to assassinate President Elect Luis Arce on Thursday evening by blowing up a stick of dynamite at the party’s headquarters when a meeting was held there”, – the report said.
