Venezuelan opposition deputies, involved in the purchase of votes against Juan Guaidó

• Venezuela. Chavista deputies to PP parliamentarians in Caracas: "Fascists! Long live free Catalonia!"
• Colombia: Colombian citizens before the deportation of 61 Venezuelans: "We do not want more garbage"

A scandal of unknown dimensions has broken out within the opposition when there are only 36 days left before the Venezuelan National Assembly votes, as every year, its president . The previous agreement for Juan Guaidó to renew in his post is in question today, after knowing the attempts to buy votes, in parallel to the efforts carried out by the parliamentarians involved in favor of millionaire revolutionary entrepreneurs. The best known is the Colombian Álex Saab , whom rebel prosecutor Luisa Ortega considers one of Nicolás Maduro's main frontmen.

First Justice (PJ), centrist party led by Julio Borges, Chancellor of Guaidó, and former presidential candidate Henrique Capriles, has advanced today with the dismissal of its three deputies involved and the request for prosecution "international courts and institutions."

The president in charge will announce his official position throughout the day. "We will not allow anyone's corruption to damage what it has cost so much to build," said the president of Parliament in his social networks, who described the scandal as "acts of corruption involving several members of the dictatorship, some disappointing individualities of Parliament and clear international interests that finance this crude plan . "

For weeks they had known in Caracas, they had even denounced the attempts to buy political wills to distort the democratic Parliament. Both Saab, investigated in his country and in the US, and Raúl Gorrín, one of the most wanted in the US and owner of the Globovisión channel, have moved briefcases with millions of dollars, according to the same complaints.

What is known so far, published by the armando.info portal, is that opposition parliamentarians have made informal efforts before organizations such as the United States Department of the Treasury or the Colombian Prosecutor's Office to clean the image of businessmen involved in the plot of corruption of food imports from the government of Nicolás Maduro. These are the famous CLAP boxes, the Bolivarian update of the Cuban ration book.

The deputies have written letters of good conduct for the agencies to acquit or stop investigating businessmen such as Carlos Lizcano, deputy of Saab and his partner, Álvaro Pulido, sanctioned by the Treasury Department in July.

The principal indicated is Luis Parra (PJ), who appears as coordinator of the group of deputies who in October delivered a letter to the Bogotá Prosecutor's Office in which they ask to exempt Lizcano and his company Salva Foods 2015 from any irregularity related to Saab. The letter is signed by opposition deputies Conrado Pérez (PJ), Richard Arteaga and Guillermo Luces (Voluntad Popular, VP, the Guaidó and Leopoldo López party) and Chaim Bucarám, Héctor Vargas and William Barrientos, of Un Nuevo Tiempo (UNT ). A similar letter was sent to the US Treasury at the end of September , but it has not been confirmed that the document has been received.

Parra denied knowing Lizcano or having participated in conversations so that the Comptroller's commission of the National Assembly, controlled by the opposition, would end up favoring him. Another of the deputies mentioned is Freddy Superlano (VP), president of the Commission of the Comptroller of the Parliament, who announced on Saturday in a letter that separated from his position to facilitate investigations by several accusations against him. The main accusation is that he would have addressed a letter to the US Department of the Treasury to favor Saab's interests.

This businessman from Barranquilla jumped into public opinion when two years ago he not only accused four Venezuelan journalists, the backbone of the electronic medium armando.info, of slandering him, but even moved the threads of power to imprison them. The four reporters were forced to escape from their country and today they continue their informative work in exile.
