who was killed is pretty much as low as you can go.

Tamara Pearson from venanalysis wrote about Cabello's comments but never bothered to mention that the photos were from paintball and not of a paramilitary unit. Chavistas cannot and won't tell the truth.

Cabello also claimed that Alejandro Marquez, who died on Sunday, was killed by the rightwing. Cabello argued on public television that Marquez was killed because he didn’t fulfil a mission he was paid to do. According to Cabello, Marquez received paramilitary training, and he showed photos of Marquez using snipers while he was training in the US. He also showed Tweets where Marquez discussed killing president Nicolas Maduro.

Private opposition media La Patilla reported that that Marquez died “beaten up by the GNB (Bolivarian National Guard) in an [opposition] protest”.

However Cabello argued that rightwing sectors are using Uribe, “to bring hired killers here to kill people in the barricades and violent protests and later say that it was the government”.
