Bolivian lawmaker Domingo Alcibia Rivera was caught on camera allegedly raping a colleague on the floor of Parliament. After an alcohol-fueled holiday luncheon, security cameras appear to have captured Rivera approaching the unconscious woman and, after the lights in the room go dark, sexually assaulting her.

The woman is clearly intoxicated and limp in her chair as Rivera moves her to the floor and assaults her. He is interrupted when the lights go back on and people re-enter the room. Rivera then props the woman back up in her chair and sits down beside her.

The footage is from December 20 but was recently made public after it was leaked to YouTube.

According to ABC.es, the guards who were on duty that night were dismissed after the incident, and the victim of Rivera's assault was given another post.
