Colombia rebel arrest row worsens Venezuela has recalled its ambassador to Colombia, in an escalating dispute over the capture of a Colombian rebel.
Venezuela said the capture of Rodrigo Granda in Caracas was a violation of sovereignty, and accused Bogota of bribing Venezuelan agents to catch him.
On Wednesday a Colombian minister admitted his government paid bounty hunters to help seize Mr Granda.
Colombia has denied that any of its agents entered Venezuelan territory during the operation.
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez says his government's investigations show Mr Granda was illegally kidnapped and then taken across the border.
