Investigators raided the official residence of Paraguay's president on November 12, 2026, as part of a probe into the collapse of one of the country's largest banks, the public prosecutor's office told AFP. The collapse of Ueno Bank -- which has blocked millions of Paraguayans from their savings -- led to the ouster and arrest this month of former president Santiago Pena, who has been accused of using his position to illicitly benefit the financial firm.
