Bolivian political advisor Fernando Cerimedo has been accused of attempted femicide following a shooting incident involving his ex-girlfriend, political activist Nadia Beller. Beller, a 33-year-old Bolivian lawyer, human rights activist and political analyst, was shot three times outside a hotel in Santa Cruz de la Sierra on Monday and remains in stable condition in a hospital.
Cerimedo was arrested on Tuesday on suspicion of being behind an armed attack against Beller, who was en route to board a plane from Bolivia to Buenos Aires at the time of his capture. Beller claims Cerimedo was either involved in ordering the hitmen or had prior knowledge of their identity. She alleges that he promised guards to protect her before the meeting, but they did not show up, leading her to believe that he had planned the attack.
Beller also revealed she is four weeks pregnant with Cerimedo's child and that she suffered gender-based violence, adding that her phone, containing evidence of an alleged corruption scheme involving President Rodrigo Paz and his family, was stolen by the attackers.
