Various of La Paz STORYLINE: Bolivia's government announced that 17 people had been arrested for their alleged involvement in the attempted government take-over, including the army chief, Gen. Juan José Zúñiga, who was arrested the day before. The South American nation of 12 million watched in shock and bewilderment Wednesday as military forces appeared to turn on the government of President Luis Arce, seizing control of the capital's main square with armored vehicles, repeatedly crashing a small tank into the presidential palace and unleashing tear gas on protesters. Zúñiga and former navy Vice Adm. Juan Arnez Salvador were both arrested and remained in custody. Senior Cabinet member Eduardo del Castillo did not elaborate on the other 15 people who were arrested on Thursday other than to identify one civilian, Aníbal Aguilar Gómez, as the "mastermind" of the thwarted coup. He said the alleged conspirators began plotting in May. On Wednesday, riot police guarded the palace doors and Arce — who has struggled to manage the country's shortages of foreign currency and fuel — emerged on the presidential balcony to condemn Zúñiga and declare that "no one can take democracy away from us." Analysts say that the surge of public support for Arce, even if fleeting, provides him with a reprieve from the country's economic quagmire and political turmoil. Before his arrest late Wednesday, Zúñiga alleged without providing evidence that Arce had ordered the general to carry out the coup attempt in a ruse to boost the president's popularity. Some Bolivians said they believed Gen. Zúñiga's allegations on national TV that the coup attempt was a hoax. Soon after the military maneuver was underway, it became clear that any attempted takeover had no meaningful political support. The rebellion ended bloodlessly by the end of the business day. Arce named a new army commander, who ordered troops to retreat.
