Bolivian Court Keeps Che Guevara's Assassin Under House Arrest



La Paz, May 10 (Prensa Latina) A Bolivian court has decided to keep former military Gary Pardo Salmon - one of those involved in the assassination of Argentinean-Cuban guerrilla leader Ernesto Che Guevara and accused of plotting against the Bolivian government - under house arrest.

The magistrates rejected the request to revoke the measures of preventive house arrest for Prado, one of 39 people involved in a terrorist group that tried to divide Bolivia into two different nations and kill current President Evo Morales, under the command of paramilitary Eduardo Rozsa.

...

The continuing of the trial is scheduled for Friday, and is one of the most controversial trials in Bolivia's history.

Prado Salmon was the responsible for the capture and identification of Che Guevara in 1967. He was the one who tied his hands, beat him and reported his arrest to the US Central Intelligence Agency.
