At least five people have been killed in Bolivia in clashes between supporters of former President Evo Morales and security forces. A doctor in Sacaba told the Associated Press that most of those killed and injured on Friday had bullet wounds. Jerjes Justiniano, a minister from the interim government, confirmed the deaths to local media. Mr Morales resigned last Sunday amid protests over a contested presidential election. He has since fled to Mexico. The former leader told the BBC earlier on Friday that there were no meaningful charges that could be brought against him over October's disputed election. He was responding to interim President Jeanine Áñez, who said he could be prosecuted if he returned to Bolivia. Mr Morales had previously said he was willing to return to Bolivia in order to restore peace. He also told US broadcaster CNN that what happened in Sacaba was "a real massacre". Ms Áñez, who declared herself interim president on Tuesday, has already broken ties with Venezuela and is sending home more than 700 Cuban medics. The moves are meant to show that the interim government is distancing itself from Mr Morales's regional left-wing allies.
