Venezuela's Interior Ministry has announced the capture in the state of Barinas of the singer and revolutionary, 'Julian Conrado' [Guillermo Enrique Torres], a former member of the Patriotic Union of Colombia and comrade of Raul Reyes [FARC leader killed in Colombia's invasion of Ecuador and reputed owner of the 'magic computer']. While there are few details available at this time from the Venezuelan government, President Santos of Colombia celebrated yesterday the capture of this person he described as a 'narco-terrorist' as the result of a Venezuelan operation assisted by Colombia police and intelligence and said that President Chavez had told him that Conrado would be delivered to Colombia (as had occurred recently with another activist called a narco-terrorist by Colombia, the Swedish citizen Perez Becerra). The People's Tribune, newspaper of the Communist Party of Venezuela declared its solidarity with Conrado; the title of its article asked if Venezuela had become a dangerous place for revolutionaries.
