The Sinaloa cartel has
allegedly claimed responsibility for the killing of Colombian regional election
candidate Karina Garcia this month, as reported by Pulzo.
A car carrying Karina
Garcia, a Liberal Party candidate in the municipality of Suarez in Cauca
Province, the politician's mother, three local activists, and a candidate for
the municipal council, was reportedly shot at on 2 September while it was
driving on a highway in the mountainous region, before being set on fire.
Colombian authorities
have previously alleged that the killing was carried out by the leader of the
dissident FARC group, which has been increasingly active in the area.
However, a pamphlet circulating
around the city of Suarez since the start of September has claimed that it was
El Chapo’s Sinaloa cartel that carried out the brutal assassinations due to
Garcia’s apparent refusal to cooperate with the group.
The pamphlet, the
authenticity of which has yet to be proven, also contained threats directed at
other local politicians who might try to interfere in the activities of the
group, stating that “the massacres will not keep happening” if the government
works “properly” with the group.
In July 2019, a US
court sentenced Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman to life in prison on a range of
charges, including drug trafficking and money laundering, placing him in a US
maximum security prison.
Columbia needs to question its sovereignty if it's going to let a Mexican cartel threaten the Columbian government. If that doesn't galvanize their resolve, then they are milk toast.
ReplyDeleteWhy would CDS need to whack a Colombian govt official and then claim responsibility!? Sounds like something a rival cartel would cook up. Could be a rival govt official, maybe even the CIA. Possibilities are endless!
ReplyDeleteso the Sinaloan Cartel didn't actually say they were responsible for killing anybody, a pamphlet circulating said so, and must have been signed 'Sincerely, El Chapo', so every one knew from where and whom it originated.
DeleteIf you take a step back and squint through the chaos and carnage you can see the lines on the chessboard and who's playing who.
Sounds like the Farc is trying to draw attention away from them by blaming the sinaloa cartel.
ReplyDeleteAnother case of the cartel wanting politicians to work together with them. They tried to make be curupt, but no luck in her saying yes, will that country arrest the cartel or are they the same as MEXICO and do nothing?
ReplyDeleteIm more than doubtful. This not CDSs style. Would make no sense, whatsoever
ReplyDeleteHighly doubt CDS is behind this!
ReplyDeleteTerrorist groups make claim sUch as this as well. Be care boys. Once your big neighbors up north think your a terrorist they come running
ReplyDelete@6:10 dude u r clueless!
Delete'Terrorist' is only used to hype the sheep into a mindless frenzy as an excuse for blanket US government action (mass murder, mass surveillance, mass fraud etc).
The US government has no interest in getting involved in the WoD down south as it is rolling on just according to plan.
