Sacha Sergio Llorenti Soliz, or Sacha Llorenti, is a former Bolivian government official and past president (for two years) of Bolivia's Permanent Assembly for Human Rights. He was appointed as Vice Minister of Coordination with Social Movements in January 2010, and elevated to Minister of Government (or Interior Minister) in January 2007.[1] Llorenti resigned from that post on 27 September 2011 in the wake of the government's raid on the indigenous march in defense of the Isiboro Sécure National Park and Indigenous Territory. Llorenti neither took the blame for the raid nor condemned it, but resigned so as to not "be converted into a instrument of the right wing and the opposition seeking to attack the process [of change] and damage the image of the President."[2]
