Bolivian prosecutors issued a fresh arrest warrant for former President Evo Morales on July 29, 2026, charging him with armed insurrection, terrorism, criminal conspiracy, and related offenses tied to his alleged role in organizing May–June road blockades and protests against the government. This followed earlier warrants linked to a statutory rape investigation and contempt findings after Morales failed to appear in court. He remains in hiding in the Chapare coca-growing region, continues to reject the charges as political persecution, and has not been detained despite police directives. Trader sentiment reflects uncertainty over enforcement in a polarized environment, where his cocalero support base and ongoing political activity could complicate or delay any operation, while scheduled court proceedings and potential further charges keep the possibility of detention active through the resolution window.

Temporary holding at a detention facility while awaiting a judge’s decision on whether to grant a detention warrant qualifies, so long as they are held by law enforcement in an official capacity during that time.
A qualifying arrest/detention includes:
* Being taken into physical custody by law enforcement authorities (including federal, state, local, military, or international law enforcement)
* Voluntarily surrendering to law enforcement authorities in response to an arrest warrant
* Being formally booked or processed following detention
* Being handcuffed by a state authority and taken to a police station
* Surrendering at a police station or courthouse with their attorney
* Being placed under house arrest or electronic monitoring
The following scenarios will NOT qualify as an arrest/detention
* An arrest warrant being issued but not executed
* Being questioned or interviewed without arrest
* Being named in an indictment without arrest
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the arresting government and law enforcement; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
