On March 31, after the seizure of weapons of war in Colombia that were intended to enter Venezuela, the Public Ministry issued a summons to Juan Guaidó for his alleged involvement with a plan to eliminate government officials.
The most serious crimes concern Guaidó’s direct participation in the plot that led to the dispossession of the nation’s assets abroad as well as his signature on the contract for the mercenaries for the failed assassination attempt against President Nicolas Maduro and other Venezuelan authorities, known as Operation Gideon
