Haitian Police Arrest 3 subversives with US $350,368 for opposition candidate Henrique Capriles

[Catherina]

I simply have to redo this thread because someone posted a different version, lacking the important information, with the deliberate intention to mislead.

Dinero de la reconstrucción de Haití para la campaña de Capriles


En la mañana de este martes fueron arrestados en Haití tres ciudadanos, uno colombiano y dos venezolanos, que portaban de forma ilegal unos 350.368 dólares americanos en efectivo, los cuales serían utilizados en la campaña del candidato opositor Henrique Capriles Radonsky.

La denuncia fue realizada por Jorge Rodríguez, jefe del Comando de Campaña “Hugo Chávez” del candidato Nicolás Maduro para las elecciones presidenciales del 14 de abril de 2013, durante una rueda de prensa efectuada el día de hoy en compañía de la militancia revolucionaria.

Rodríguez precisó que cuando estas personas fueron interrogadas por funcionarios de la Policía Nacional de Haití, “señalaron que ese dinero estaba destinado a la campaña del candidato opositor Henrique Capriles”.

On Tuesday morning, three people were arrested in Haiti, one Colombian and two Venezuelans, illegally carrying US $350,368 in cash, which would be used in the campaign of opposition candidate Henrique Capriles.

...

When the men were questioned by officers of the Haitian National Police, they said "that the money was intended for the campaign of opposition candidate Henrique Capriles".

The money was in suitcases and they were caught as the tried to board an unspecified plane to an unspecified destination. The three were arrested and taken into custody. Thank you Haiti. Keep them locked up for a while.

1. Maduro campaign official accusation

just more of the same bs.

2. Thank you, Catherina. So glad you chose to provide a clean context with this subject.

We've seen that stunt before here, haven't we? That's really sad, and makes you think someone is handing out other buckets of money to keep these clowns nailed to message boards specifically to misinform, and always mislead,

You have our total thanks for your quick response. This is actually a very LARGE story for the right reason.

Hope for sure they'll keep them in that slammer. That's the right place for them.

It would be tremendous if someone traces it back to the sponsor. Maybe they could let one out for coughing up the identity of the one who sent the money.

3. yep, a huge story like Chavez being inoculated with cancer or a mass grave

in La Macarena. Exactly the same.

5. I think this is why they broke off the *talks* with Roberta Jacobson

I'll keep an eye out for additional details. And you're so right. We've all seen this stunt before and it's why the

First Jacobson accuses them of not having free elections and tries to foist US friendly election observers like they did in Haiti to stop Lavalas, then the Haitians catch those rightwingers with all that cash for Capriles on the heels of the Juan Carlos Caldera scandal. Such Karma!

In the video Rodriguez also mentions a very recent incident of corruption in the Capriles campaign involving Juan Carlos Caldera, his very dirty campaign manager, that Capriles was forced to sack a few months ago.

“Hasta cuándo los cheques de (Richard) Mardo, la bolsita de Juan Carlos Caldera, que vendía reuniones con el candidato de la derecha a cambio de efectivo; la llamada telefónica del papá del candidato diciendo ‘Lo mío me lo traje en efectivo”.

Oh my. Bribery and extortion to boot. Monthly affair lol.

Capriles Sacks Top Aide amid Opposition Bribery Accusations in Venezuela

Mérida, 14th September 2012 (Venezuelanalysis.com) –

A video has emerged of a top campaign aide of Venezuelan opposition candidate Henrique Capriles Radonski covertly accepting 40,000 bolivars (US $9,300) and offering to set up a meeting between Capriles and an unknown businessman.

The video has provoked accusations of bribery and corruption among Capriles’ Roundtable of Democratic Unity (MUD) coalition. Capriles immediately sacked the aide, Juan Carlos Caldera, who is a parliamentary deputy for Capriles’ First Justice (PJ) party and was the MUD’s representative to Venezuela’s National Electoral Council.


Secret Meeting

...

In the first section, Capriles’ aide Caldera is seen meeting with the intermediary of a client referred to as “the boss”, said to be a businessman outside of Venezuela, and accepts a closed envelope from the intermediary. “We want it to be a monthly affair,” adds Caldera.

In the second section, dated 12 June, the intermediary tells Caldera that “the boss” would like to meet with Capriles himself. Caldera says this would be possible to arrange, but only when Capriles is on tour outside the country, hinting that a meeting inside Venezuela would be too risky.

Caldera then accepts bundles of 100 bolivar banks notes from “the boss” and stuffs them into an envelope. “Tell him (the boss) that things are going well, the job isn’t done but we’re on the way to achieving it,” he tells the intermediary.

Here's the video Capriles didn't want Venezuela to see

The message is crystal clear... If Henrique Capriles Radonski wins the election, Venezuela will return to the elite corruption that ran the country for the second half of the 20th century — the country’s so-called Fourth Republic period during which two right-wing parties swapped power between themselves for four decades, until Chavez took over in 1999.

“They’ll try to make up reasons and excuses,” Gloria Torres, an avid Chavez supporter living in the Caracas slum of Petare, said of the Capriles camp. “But in truth this is an ugly blow. They will not survive it.”

6. This is interesting. Hmmm. Great catch, to put it mildly.

Caught it just as I was getting ready to take off for a while this evening.

I am so looking forward to getting back here and getting close and personal with this information. It is truly interesting.

Thank you for sharing it. Wow. Wow wow.

10. I updated my post to say "I think this is why"

because I have no real proof and the Venezuelan government isn't sharing all the details but how else to interpret how they caught those two US attaches contacting high level military officers to help them destabilize the country, Jacobson's insulting speech and trying to foist the OAS election observers on them, and now this?

And I know there's a lot more going on. We lied all the way to the UN and went all the way to Iraq for large reserves that take 4 days to get here. Venezuela has the largest proved reserves ever and they're only 4 hours away. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know we're not going to sit back quietly.

13. Thanks for the information. It should not surprise anyone to find US 'attaches' trying to

destroy an oil-producing nation, yet again. Do we know how to do anything else?

[sabrina 1]

17. Not that I am surprised, but it appears that if they believed they could arrange a meeting with

Caprilles, outside of Venezuela because it would have been too 'risky' inside the country, that Caprilles is as dirty as the guy he fired, which was clearly only for the sake of appearance.

Excellent post, thank you Catherina!

[Catherina]

18. He's as dirty as they come. His little shenanigans at the Cuban Embassy

cutting off the water, electricity and going in there to threaten the staff demonstrated that. And since it's Catholics week, let's throw that in because he's a militant in the extreme catholic right wing sect Tradition, Family and Property (TFP)

His family is one of those old powerful families who head several industrial, real estate and media conglomerates to include the paper Ultimas Noticias newspaper, which has a huge spread despite the lack of freedom of the press his rightwing keeps screeching about.

His father finances a ton of rightwing candidates and was involved in that JP Caldera scandal.

The party he founded in 2000, Primero Justicia, is extreme right wing and got their financing from the NED's International Republican Insititute, and guess which was the only party that officially recognized the 2000 coup?

Why this man isn't in jail is beyond me. Oh that's right, the public prosecutor who was handling his mysteriously died in a very conveniently timed car bombing.

You can read more objections about him here http://www.rnv.gov.ve/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=9649:50-truths-about-henrique-capriles-candidate-for-president-of-venezuela&catid=53:boletim-portugues&Itemid=74 and research the ones you want. He's pure slime.

[sabrina 1]

20. It's a testament to Chavez's success then that this dirty, right wing politician had to pretend to

be in line with Chavez's policies in order to get any support at all. Looks like the people have rejected those old Right Wing policies the US loves so much.

That little incident probably ensured he would not win. But it is too bad that anyone at all was fooled by his pretense of being something he clearly is not.

4. What's the underlying source of the story?

Is there any citation that they confessed other than the assertion of the author?

[Catherina]

8. I heard it on Haitian News earlier today

I first heard the news here http://www.metropolehaiti.com/metropole/live.php but I haven't seen anything in print. Haiti doesn't have that many papers right now and I have a hard time searching for stuff in kreyol.

[naaman fletcher]

9. Don't get me wrong

I wouldn't be surprised if its true, but at the same time i wouldn't be surprised if it was false-flag or simply a basically made up story as well

[Catherina]

11. I'll keep an eye out.

Haitian News was decimated after the earthquake and the best, independent News services belonged to Lavalas and were never rebuilt so it's pretty hard. But I'll keep looking for more.
