Digital Desk | Asuncion, Nov 7 (IANS) Paraguay's Senate voted unanimously to remove President Santiago Pena from office following an impeachment trial over alleged misconduct linked to the collapse of Ueno Bank, with all 44 senators present voting in favor. Prosecutors ordered the detention of ousted President over alleged breach of trust and other offenses linked to the collapse of Ueno Bank, local media reported. According to local newspaper ABC Color, the order was issued by a team of four prosecutors investigating the banking scandal and sent to the national police for enforcement. Pena faced accusations of conflicts of interest involving the private bank, regulatory manipulation and misuse of pension funds, Xinhua news agency reported. Pena submitted his resignation Thursday amid a crisis triggered by the authorities' intervention in Ueno Bank, apparently seeking to avoid impeachment. The Senate voted 24-20 against his resignation, but a joint session of Congress failed to complete the process as lawmakers' walk-out left the Chamber of Deputies without a quorum. The Chamber of Deputies had separately approved impeachment charges against Pena, paving the way for the Senate trial. Pena had sought additional time to prepare his defense, arguing that he received the impeachment charges only late Thursday night. The Senate later ruled that Pena had failed to appear to present his defense and proceeded to review the evidence. His defense lawyers subsequently arrived at Congress. The president faces impeachment proceedings following the collapse of Ueno Bank, which initially left around 3 million customers unable to access their accounts. Under Paraguay's Constitution, democratically elected former presidents are entitled to lifetime seats in the Senate and parliamentary immunity, unless convicted in impeachment trials. Pena's removal therefore deprives him of these privileges.

Cornell faculty votes 'no confidence' in university leaders over handling of rape allegations
Cornell University's Faculty Senate approved a resolution Friday declaring no confidence in the school's top leaders , a symbolic gesture reflecting deep discontent on campus in the wake of a former student's lawsuit saying she was gang raped at a fraternity party in 2024 . The resolution passed 75-50, with five faculty senators abstaining and five others not voting, according to an email sent to Faculty Senate members on Friday afternoon. The vote followed weeks of debate among professors over whether Cornell President Michael Kotlikoff and other administrators handled the womans allegations properly and have done enough to curtail sexual misconduct at the prestigious university. While the faculty body has no power over the university's top leaders, backers of the resolution had said they hoped it would pressure Cornell's trustees to address longstanding institutional failures they identified. Board of Trustees Chair Anne Smalling said in a statement the faculty vote reflects the deep anger across our campus and sent a clear signal that what happened to the woman was unacceptable, but added that Kotlikoff and his administration were the right leaders to thoughtfully and comprehensively address the issue. Thomas Giuffra, an attorney for the woman who filed the lawsuit, said in a statement Friday that we are hopeful that this will be yet another step forward to educate and support the Cornell community by addressing the longstanding scourge of sexual assault on campus. Lawsuit sparked outrage on campus The Cornell community has been distressed since mid-September, when a former student, identified only by the pseudonym Jane Doe in court documents, filed a lawsuit against the university and seven former members of the Chi Phi fraternity, saying she was given ketamine and raped at a fraternity house in October 2024. All of the men have denied her allegations, saying the sex was consensual or that they werent involved. The local district attorney initially decided the woman had consented to the encounter and that no crime had been committed, but the investigation has since been reopened and handed to New Yorks attorney general. Cornell disciplined several of the accused students following a monthslong Title IX investigation. Two were expelled, two received suspensions and probation, and two were required to write reflection papers and complete bystander training. A seventh man had already graduated and was barred from campus, according to records obtained by The New York Times. Kotlikoff also convened a task force to study the problem of sexual misconduct on campus, which released certain recommendations. Some faculty members have criticized Kotlikoff for not acting more forcefully to strengthen the school's disciplinary process, push for criminal investigations and change campus party culture. Paul Ortiz, a labor history professor who co-sponsored the no-confidence resolution, said last week that hundreds of students, staff, alumni and faculty approached the resolutions sponsors to emphasize that the Jane Doe case is but a tip of the iceberg and that a veritable fortress of silence has been breached around sexual violence since the resolutions introduction. Cornell's president defended his leadership Speaking to Faculty Senate members on the first day that they debated the no-confidence resolution , Kotlikoff pledged to make the university a leader in addressing sexual assault and asked for more time to make changes. Kotlikoff defended his leadership , arguing that replacing him would do little to solve complex problems and could damage Cornells reputation. He acknowledged he had not read the campus police report, explaining that university policy barred top administrators from interfering in criminal investigations. He also rejected suggestions he had been indifferent to the womans case, though he acknowledged only recently learning she had left Cornell. Kotlikoff said the university needed to determine whether fraternities could operate safely and left open the possibility of sweeping restrictions on Greek life. He argued that decisions should be based on research and evidence rather than emotion. Some professors had said faculty should wait to vote until the release of an independent investigation by former U.S. Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, whom the university hired to examine both how Cornell responded to the woman's initial rape report in 2024 and its overall procedures for handling similar reports from other students. The no-confidence resolution did not call for Kotlikoff's resignation.

Sen. Chris Murphy is released from hospital after hemorrhagic stroke
Washington Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut was released from the hospital Friday after experiencing a stroke nearly a week ago, but will miss several weeks of votes as he continues his recovery at a rehabilitation center. I want to be direct with you, so here is my diagnosis, Murphy said in a statement. Last Saturday afternoon, I felt something was not right with my body and called 9-1-1 out of an abundance of caution, and I'm glad I did. Murphy, who is 53, said he was diagnosed with a small bleed in the thalamus region of his brain. The thalamus sits above the brainstem and relays sensory information between the spinal cord and the brain, according to the Cleveland Clinic . Dr. Jose Suarez, the chief of neurosciences critical care at Johns Hopkins, where Murphy was hospitalized, said the senator experienced a small hemorrhagic stroke. He has shown tremendous progress, and at the current rate of improvement, we expect that he will make a full recovery following rehabilitation, Suarez said in a statement released by Murphy's office. Murphy said he is taking his recovery seriously and will be spending several weeks at a rehabilitation center in order to get back to work on the quickest timeline possible. This has been a scary experience for me and my family, and I appreciate the continued respect for our privacy, Murphy said. As I'm working towards a full recovery, I am staying engaged with my team and colleagues remotely, and my staff continues to carry out our legislative priorities, serve constituents, and ensure the work of my office continues uninterrupted. Murphy's office announced Sunday that he had numbness in his arm while at his son's hockey game and was taken to a local hospital, where it was discovered that he had a stroke. He was then transferred to Johns Hopkins. The senator has been viewed as a possible contender for the White House in 2028.
