Bolivian president's ex ordered to present love child
A Bolivian court ordered President Evo Morales's ex-girlfriend Tuesday to present the child she says he fathered with her nearly a decade ago, a son the leftist leader insists has died.
The dispute is at the center of a political drama that has gripped Bolivia since an investigative journalist revealed Morales's relationship with Gabriela Zapata, a high-powered executive who is now accused of abusing her influence to win contracts for the Chinese company where she worked.
Morales has acknowledged he had a child with Zapata, whom he says he dated from 2005 to 2007.
But he says the boy died soon after birth, while her family insists he is alive.
