Elías Rivas / October 23, 2018.- The Minister of the Interior and Justice, Néstor Reverol, announced on Tuesday the intervention to the Municipal Police Force of Chacao for "insubordination."

"From the Ministry of the Interior, Justice and Peace, the Governing Body of the Police Service, we initiated an investigation into alleged acts of indiscipline and insubordination in the Municipal Police Force of Chacao, made public and notorious through the dissemination of a video on networks social, "he said.

Reverol explained that "this type of conduct makes us take decisive actions aimed at the beginning of a process of intervention and designation of new authorities, according to the powers established in the Organic Law of the Police Service and its regulations," he said.

This action taken by the Minister is in response to an "impasse" between the police director, Commissioner Luis Godoy, and a supervisor named Aponte, who can be seen in a video -exhibited on social networks- where they are also heard strong insults from both sides.

Looks like the wheels are coming off the Chavista wagon. The police are not getting paid. When they do get paid, they can't get cash (which is increasingly useless) Crime is through the roof. Violent crime is the worst in the world. But they are expected to swear allegiance and enforce the dictates of the Bolivarian Revolution (not the Republic of Venezuela).

This is how it is going to start. The Chavist Commissioner is going to get an anonymous bullet. And when the "Bolivarian National Police" assume control, it will be a shitstorm when every local officer resigns. (As is the normal when the PNB shows up and takes over.)
