Interpol orders arrest of ELN terrorist given sanctuary in Venezuela

Interpol ordered the capture of the head of the National Liberation Army who would be in Venezuela
The Cooperator | October 18, 2018

Translated from Spanish

Caracas.- The International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) once again published the red circular against Gustavo Aníbal Giraldo Quinchía, aka 'Pablito', head of the National Liberation Army (ELN) who would be based in Venezuela.

The subject is required for the crimes of aggravated kidnapping, aggravated homicide and aggravated qualified robbery, according to the Colombian newspaper El Tiempo . Giraldo Quinchía, who is part of the central command of the ELN, escaped in October 2019 from the jail in the department of Arauca.



According to an investigation carried out by the Colombian media, since 'Pablito' ran away, he settled in Apure state and then has mobilized throughout the national territory.

ELN is the successor to FARC, the Marxist/Maoist group that has been terrorizing rural Colombia for nearly 50 years. When FARC leadership decided to lay down their weapons after 50 years and go political, ELN was formed by remnants who refused to quit the struggle. Now that the rural poor of Colombia has made their hatred of ELN/FARC known (FARC candidates in Colombia where pelted with eggs and rotten fruit on the campaign trail), the ELN has found kindred spirits in Venezuela, where they are given sanctuary by the Chavista regime along the common border. They have even gone so far as to put their propaganda on CLAP boxes in Venezuela!
