Alex Saab/Arrest warrant in someone else’s name
From Orinoco Tribune
The following slightly edited article first appeared in the Orinoco Tribune July 22, as Cape Verde Admits Alex Saab’s Arrest Warrant was in Someone Else’s Name (Kidnapping).
A year after the arrest of the Venezuelan diplomat Alex Saab, Cape Verde’s Attorney General (PGR), Luis José Landim, admitted that the warrant used to arrest him, June 12, 2020, was actually issued in somebody else’s name.
In the counter-allegations presented before the Constitutional Court, the PGR requested a correction in these terms: “It was mentioned that there was an international arrest warrant issued by Interpol against the appellant, issued by the U.S. judicial authorities in the file. The name on the order is the name of Álvaro Enrique Pulido-Vargas.”
