Ex-leader Raul Cubas’ kidnapped daughter found dead
The family of former President Raul Cubas mourned Cecilia Cubas after her body was found in a pit near an abandoned house. The 32-year-old was abducted in a commando-style operation nearly five months earlier, with Colombian guerrillas suspected in the high-profile kidnapping. A forensic doctor said she likely died from sedative overdose about a month ago. Cubas served as president from August 1998 to March 1999 in Paraguay.
