Ex-leader house-arrested
Paraguayan authorities placed ousted President Santiago Peña under house arrest at his home in the capital, Asunción, following his removal amid the Oino Bank crisis. He is scheduled to be questioned on charges of breach of trust, abuse of influence, and embezzlement. The central bank’s takeover of the bank froze the deposits of around 3 million people—half the country’s population—sparking widespread protests. Vice President Pedro Alliana was sworn in as president to serve out the term, which ends in August 2028.
