Venezuelan Ambassador Armando Benedetti was to make a statement in the last hours. A conversation he had with President Gustavo Petro via a messaging platform: “Silence for both for today”, the head of state would say to him.
This is what it looks like in a screenshot of a WhatsApp status of the ambassador and bishop of the Historical Covenant, revealed on W Radio by journalist Daniel Coronell. Second screenshot of a private conversation with Benedetti that he disclosed in the midst of the scandal. The previous one was from a conversation with Laura Sarabia.

According to the report, at 12:55 noon on Thursday, Ambassador Benedetti writes: “Okay, I am calm.”
“OK. Both silence for today. We’ll see how things go,” Petro replies in the video released.
Then the messenger says: “Sir. Sorry to bother you, but the chancellor is canceling all my travels, private plane, etc. I’m Laura!…And I’m quiet.”
The meeting took place amid tensions due to a meeting scheduled for the night between Petro and Benedetti and Sarabia. And just minutes before the scandal erupted over cheating on Sarabia’s caretaker, which was exposed by Attorney General Francisco Barbosa on the same Thursday afternoon.
(Moreover: The attacks on Sarabia’s ex-nanny lasted 10 days, not 3: Prosecutor’s Office denied the Police)
The scandal involving President Gustavo Petro’s chief of staff, Laura Sarabia, ranged from an investigation of theft, possible abuse of power and abuse of public property to an investigation into illegal hacking. Prosecutor Francisco Barbosa compared it to what has been done in the past by DAS and F-2, the two most questioned security organizations in the country’s history.
The prosecution confirmed that last January, Police Dijín’s nanny, Marelbys Meza, and an employee of the home of chief of staff Fabiola Tehran had tapped their phones. These illegal wiretaps were covered up by the alleged wiretapping of the ‘Gulf clan’.
At a press conference, Barbosa pledged to cover up the illegal wiretaps on January 30 (the day Sarabia reported that her briefcase was stolen with money). Under the pseudonym Siopas, he was one of the top leaders of the ‘Gulf clan’ at the time and one of the most wanted criminals in the country.
