Paraguay's Central Bank said on November 11 it had partially returned savings to all eligible Ueno Bank depositors locked out of their accounts when it collapsed last week, and which triggered massive protests across Paraguay leading to the impeachment and arrest of ex-president Santiago Pena, who is accused of using his position to illicitly benefit the financial firm.
