LA PAZ - Bolivians marched again in several cities on Friday night and there were even scattered cases of police joining the protests, adding to the pressure on President Evo Morales amid a weeks-long standoff over a disputed election last month.
Images and footage on local television showed police in other cities also marching alongside protesters and joining chants regularly used by the opposition to leftist leader Morales. Morales, Latin America’s longest-standing leader, won the election last month but has faced mounting pressure after the Oct. 20 vote count was inexplicably halted for nearly a day, sparking allegations of fraud.
Late on Friday, Camacho said in a Twitter post police had joined protests in at least five cities: “Thank you for being with your people, God bless you!” At the presidential offices in La Paz, Foreign Minister Diego Pary said that the audit by the Organization of American States should be ready by Tuesday or Wednesday.
