Bolivia's Ex-President Anez Released from Prison Ahead of Paz Inauguration
A former president of Bolivia, Jeanine Anez, is now free from prison.
She had been in jail for more than four years.
This happened because the country's highest court said she could be released.
Her detention was connected to things that happened when she was in charge for a short time in 2019.
Now that she is out, she has been asked to come to the event where the new president, Rodrigo Paz, will officially start his job.
This is happening on Saturday.
Former Bolivian President Jeanine Anez was released from prison on Thursday, November 6.
Her release followed an order from Bolivia's Supreme Court.
