Bolivia's Congress, controlled by the socialist party of the former indigenous President Evo Morales, approved on Thursday night a report that recommends a lawsuit against outgoing right-wing President Jeanine Anez for genocide and other alleged crimes.

The report, submitted by a parliamentary commission, alleges that Anez and some of her ministers are responsible for “resolutions contrary to the Constitution and the laws, breach of duties, genocide, murder, serious injuries, criminal association, deprivation of liberty and the forced disappearance of people.”

After assuming power on Nov. 12 of last year, Anez’s government came under fire for a law giving the military broad discretion in the use of force. At least 30 people were killed in protests after she took office, most of whom were MAS supporters and civilians.
