‘Family of narco who helped Venezuela’s opposition leader travel to Colombia assassinated’
by Adriaan Alsema September 16, 2019

Four family members of the drug trafficker who helped Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido enter Colombia have been massacred, a local investigator said Monday.

The massacre took place days after sociologist Wilfredo Cañizarez revealed images of the narcos posing with Guaido and local press began publishing evidence indicating that Venezuela’s opposition, the Colombian government and US authorities were colluding.

The investigator who has been investigating organized crime in the border area for twnty years, said Monday that “narcoparamilitaries of Los Rastrojos” tried to assassinate “Nandito,” the brother of “El Menor,” who also posed with Guaido on February 22, the day that the Venezuelan opposition leader entered Colombia.

“He was able to flee. In retaliation they assassinated four of his family members including his parents,” Cañizares said on Twitter.

Last week, the sociologist revealed images of Guaido confirming locals’ claims that Venezuela’s opposition received help from the Rastrojos to travel to Colombia and lead a failed operation to force aid sent by the US government across the border.

The United States embassy in Bogota, the White House and the Department of State have remained silent as mounting evidence indicate that the US-sponsored operation to force “humanitarian aid” into Venezuela on February 23 received coordinated support from drug traffickers.
