After denouncing in
the G77 meeting in Bolivia that there is an Imperial
conspiracy to overthrow him and “take over Venezuela’s resources,”
president Maduro has returned to Venezuela to continue revealing what he claims
is an opposition plot against him.
“There will be
justice on coup mongers, guarimberos,
and magnicidas [assassins of head of
State], it doesn’t matter who they are, whatever office they hold, they will
pay for their crimes, all the extreme right. We will keep on denouncing them
permanently,” declared
Maduro yesterday in his weekly radio program En Contacto con Maduro.
Arrest warrants have
been issued for three of the alleged plotters of the magnicidio conspiracy: Pedro Burelli, Ricardo Koesling, and Diego
Arria. The three are out of the country.
Another alleged main
plotter, Maria Corina Machado, was cited yesterday to the General Attorney’s
office as a witness to the case. According
to Machado, she was questioned for more than 7 hours but never formally
accused of being part of the plot. In fact she was told that since she is not
under formal investigation, and is only a witness, she could not have access
her file and her lawyers were not allowed to be present during the interview.
Machado has been publically
accused by president Maduro of being an “assassin” and one of the master minds of
the supposed plot to kill him.
