Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez suspects US plot as navy officer is detained
Saturday, 13 September 2008


Venezuelan authorities have detained a high-ranking navy officer on suspicion of involvement in a purported plot to overthrow President Hugo Chavez.

Mr Chavez insisted the United States was behind the conspiracy and predicted the "plans of the empire, the CIA ... trying to topple the government are going to continue".

Authorities detained Venezuelan Vice Admiral Carlos Millan and turned him over to military prosecutors, Justice Minister Tarek El Aissami told state television.

He said Mr Millan is the fifth detained in a group of current and former officers.

The government has released what it says are recordings of the suspects discussing plans for deposing Mr Chavez.

3. This is never going to stop until they kill Chavez. He likely knows that.

There must be a kind of freedom in knowing how you're going to die.
