Documents allegedly exposing ties between two drug traffickers and Venezuelan and Colombian military personnel, land owners, juridical authorities, FARC guerrillas and a fashion model were revealed Friday by Colombia’s La FM Radio.
The documents were said to belong to former Los Rastrojos leader Luis Enrique Calle Serna, alias "Comba," whose brother and partner, Javier Calle Serna turned himself over to U.S. authorities in May. The papers were handed over to the Prosecutor General’s Office by former navy officer César Augusto Narváez in March of 2009, but were not made public until this Friday.
According to one of the documents, dated January 2008, Wilber Varela, alias "Jabon," who at the time was the head of the now-defunct Norte del Valle Cartel, specified the necessary contacts to move through Venezuelan territory. Those mentioned included officials from the Venezuelan anti-narcotics agency, including its director Luis Correa, and prominent members of the Venezuelan National Guard, including its then-commander Nestor Reverol.
A total of 23 Venezuelan officers and public officials were identified in the document, at the end of which Comba wrote; “Good luck with obtaining money for these contacts.”
