Second in command of Chavista regime in Venezuela linked to drug trafficking
Nephew of the narcoguerrillero Iván Márquez affirmed in the US to meet with Diosdado CabelloThe Cooperator
Caracas, April 23. - Marlon Marín, a protected witness in the United States, mentioned in his statement the first vice president of the PSUV, Diosdado Cabello.
The information published by El Tiempo de Colombia suggests that Marín's testimony can open a very large door in the investigation of the relationship between the Venezuelan Chavez regime and illicit drug trafficking. The nephew of alias Iván Márquez, a strong man of the FARC consecrated Colombian senator for the Peace Agreement, was part of the group that fell prisoner during the raid in which they arrested Jesus Santrich, another former FARC, in charge of the drug trafficking business.
"Con El Mazo Dando”
El Tiempo picks up from his sources that Marín said he had joined "la Familia," a drug trafficking organization dubbed by his mother, sister of Iván Márquez. He was out of work and asked him to give him a place. Once inside the group, he traveled several times to Venezuela and Cuba, and participated in meetings with high-level Chavez leaders. Among them, he mentioned Diosdado Cabello, current vice president of the PSUV and a strong man of the Nicolás Maduro regime, says Infobae.
Cabello is designated as the capo of the Cartel de los Soles, an organization that serves to facilitate the passage of drugs that come from Colombia and must embark heading north. Marquez's nephew added several members of the cartel to the list.

First the narco-nephews (Efraín Campo and Franqui Flores) of Maduro's wife Cilia Flores are caught trying to make a deal with undercover DEA agents to import 800 kg of cocaine from Venezuela, now this news that the Vice-President of the PSUV is dealing poison.
I guess they siphoned off all that they could from the state oil compnay, PdVSA. Now that Maduro gave all the oil proceeds to the military, that well has LITERALLY run dry.
