Last night the events leading to the deaths of the three military officers were so confusing that I preferred to pass on the subcject and simply quoted my brother’s reaction to the story. Well, the more I read the details the more I am reminded that one should never believe in coincidences. Imagine this:
Saturday night near midnight, three military officers, part of the dissident miltary officers of Plaza Altamira, together with two females accmpanying them are taken by twelve men in two cars and driven away. On Monday, two of the officer’s bodies are found in one location while one woman and the other officer are found shot to death in a separate location. Separately, the second woman, reportedly manages to escape, reaches a Hospital where she is treated for gunshot wounds. As she is being treated, a bus full of armed men shows up at the hospital looking for the woman and in the process injure five people, including one of the medical doctors traeting teh patient, with bullets and knives. Now, the group of armed men is led by the concubine or husband of Chavez MVR’s leader Lina Ron, who is known for saying “there will be no change without violence”. Five of the armed men are jailed by the municipal police, including Ron’s husband. A couple of hours later, Lina Ron shows up at the police headquarters and all five men are released. The Head of police resigns and the Mayor of Sucre District, the son of Vice-President Rangel, says the two events have nothing to do with each other and that some people are still in jail.
Today, without barely any investigation, the Head of the technical police says the two cases are not connected and the motive for the assasination is not political but “passional”. Meanwhile, some reports say that the three men were also witnesses to the assasinatiosn atht took place on Dec. 6th. in Plaza Altamira. The lone gunman captured that day, was accused of being close to the Mayor of another municipality of Caracas who is both close to Chavez and Lina Ron. Meanwhile,dissident leaders of Plaza Altamira, find the whole affair suspicious, including the fact that each of the military officers was from each of the three forces in the Venezuelan military.
Obviously, this all sounds so fishy as to being absolutely incredible that this is not political, led by Chavez’ MVR and another vioaltion of people’s political and human rights. To my surprise, Human Rights Watch, that has been so quiet and lenient, and in my opinion partial to the Government, about the events in Venezuela, issued today a press release urging the Government to investigate the cases, saying “all indications are that they were political assasinations”. Wow! What is going on here! Have these people seen the light?
Meanwhile, some people are even connecting Chavez’ cancellation of his trip to Malaysia as being related to the assasinations. Very heavy stuff in my opinion, but will it once again, come to nothing?
