Two trade unionists were detained by the Bolivarian National Police due to their alleged involvement in the alleged attack planned against the attorney general, Tarek William Saabaccording to legal sources.
The detainees were registered as Luis Aquiles Rojas Velásquez (46) and Edgar Alexander Guzmán Granadino (49), who were captured at the facilities of the SunSol Escoland Hotel, located on the Pedro González-Juan Griego highway, Gómez municipality, Nueva Esparta state. It was precisely there that the Third Social Dialogue Forum was held, which brought together government delegations, trade union centrals, Fedecámaras and the International Labor Organization between Monday and Thursday.
The detainees were part of the delegation of the Bolivarian Socialist Central of Workers (Cbst). They presented an arrest warrant issued by the 4th National Court against Terrorism.
Apparently, the alleged attack was planned from the United States by Jonathan Marin, former mayor of Guanta (Anzoátegui), who is on the run. The potential victims of this criminal project would be the Attorney General, the director of his office Dahlia Vegathe delegate of the Anzoátegui Ombudsman’s Office and unionist Juan Salazar, according to initial investigations.
We learned from other sources that the two arrested union leaders would also be on the list of victims of the attack. Inside the Cbst, the arrest of Rojas and Guzmán came as a surprise, whom they consider innocent, but prefer to wait for the development of the criminal investigation to issue a pronouncement.
