He was inaugurated on 12 August 2010.Bouterse is a controversial figure, held responsible by some for numerous human rights violations committed during his military rule in the 1980s.

As he was convicted of the drug offense before his election in 2010 as head of state, he risked arrest if he leaves Suriname.In 2023, he was sentenced to twenty years' imprisonment for the 1982 murders of fifteen political dissidents. He was reported missing by the Surinamese authorities in January 2024 after refusing to report to prison. He is currently considered a fugitive.
