Paraguayan police arrest former President Pea

On November 6 local time, Paraguayan police confirmed that former President Pea has been arrested, and according to an order from prosecutors he will be placed under house arrest at home. Earlier, the Paraguayan Prosecutor's Office issued an arrest warrant for Pea. On the 6th, Paraguay's Congress passed a motion to impeach Pea, removing him from the presidency. Pea is accused of involvement in the operations of a private bank, with issues including conflicts of interest, financial manipulation, and improper use of pension funds. On the 5th, Pea submitted his resignation due to the crisis triggered by the seizure of the private bank, in order to avoid impeachment. Later that day, the Paraguayan Congress's vote on Pea's resignation was ultimately suspended due to insufficient participation, allowing Pea to temporarily remain in the presidency. Congress subsequently initiated impeachment proceedings against Pea.
