On a property located in Los Recortes, Pedro Zaraza municipality (Guárico), they arrested Oswaldo José Cheremos Carrasquel (El Pelón Cheremos), listed as a supplier of weapons to the Tren del Llano criminal organization, military sources said.
The arrest of the subject occurs after a video was broadcast where El Pelón Cheremos appears along with other people handling short and long weapons, during a kind of celebration.
At the site, six firearms were seized: Maverick shotgun, model 88, 12 caliber; Franchi SPAS-15 12-gauge shotgun; Scandinavian rifle SZ550 caliber 22mm; semi-automatic sub-machine gun Atalanta GA USA caliber 9mm; Smith & Wesson Roger 14-4 .38 caliber revolver and Glock Austria 9mm caliber pistol.
They also seized three BF888S radio transmitters, a vehicle, Toyota Land Cruiser plates AG942SK; a telephone set, three radio chargers, three chargers, 90 fired .38-caliber cartridges, 90 fired 9mm caliber cartridges, one non-fired 7.62x51mm caliber cartridge and one non-fired 9mm caliber cartridge, according to the report of the 341 Guard Detachment Nacional Bolivariana (GNB) to which we had access.
The detainee was handed over to the Public Ministry where they opened a procedure for financing terrorism, illicit possession of a firearm and possession of war material.
They presume that in that sector of the Pedro Zaraza municipality where Pelón Cheremos was captured, some videos were recorded where Carlos Pirela appeared intimidating agricultural producers in that region. Pirela was the leader of the Tren del Llano cell installed in Zaraza in the middle of last March. The body of him who was shot was located on May 24 last on the rural road that connects Tucupido with San Rafael de Laya.
After that, Henry José Milano Linero (El Demonio) was left in command, who was shot down eight days ago in the Manapoco hamlet, between El Chaparro and Aragua de Barcelona, Anzoátegui state.
