The only opposition media still operating in Venezuela, Globovisión offers an almost constant critique of popular president Hugo Chávez. This tidbit emphasizes the role Chávez played in the “escándolo de la valija” [suitcase scandal] surrounding the Argentine presidential elections earlier this November.
Venezuela and Argentina agreed to cover up the suitcase scandal, according to the Miami federal prosecutor.
A Miami federal prosecutor confirmed the existence of recordings on Monday that reveal an agreement between Argentine and Venezuela governments in August, claimed El Nuevo Herald. Organized in Buenos Aires, this agreement covers up the origin and destination of money confiscated from the Venezuelan-American businessman Guido Antonini Wilson.
“There are many recordings where [the accused] leaves it very clear that the Argentine and Venezuelan governments had made a deal. Both agreed to suppress the true source of the funds and make any problem disappear as long as Antonini collaborates,” affirms the prosecutor Tom Mulvihill.
Mulvihill’s declaration was taken word for word by El Nuevo Herald from a court recording. In the same session, Mulvihill ensured that the Venezuelan government offered $2 million US dollars for Antonini’s silence.
