Translated from Spanish



June 22, 2018 - Through social networks it was possible to know that on Thursday night an explosive was detonated in the bust of Ernesto Che Guevara located in the avenue of Bolivar Avenue in Caracas. The effigy was destroyed.

The journalist Román Camacho explained that SEBIN and CICPC officials moved to Avenida Bolivar, in an East-West direction, adjacent to the Nuevo Circo passenger terminal, following the detonation of a homemade explosive device that unknown subjects placed on Che's bust, detonating him and destroying it.

Funny... you can't get SEBIN or CICPC officials to show up to investigate a robbery or rape, but if a bust of a mass murderer is vandalized, all of the resources of Chavismo are brought to bear to investigate that "national tragedy". Without a doubt, SEBIN will find the suspects (any non Carnet de l a Patria carrying citizen will do), proudly put their mugs on all of the nationalized news outlets and the case will be blamed upon the CIA or Colombia or Portuguese pig farmers.
