Venezuelan authorities have arrested a suspected drug trafficker allegedly linked to a major Colombian drug cartel. In Caracas, Justice Minister Tareck El Aissami on Thursday called Wilmer Ignacio Guerrero Ibanez one of the “bosses of Colombia's most important cartels.” He said Guerrero Ibanez could be deported to Colombia. El Aissami said Venezuelan authorities have arrested six prominent drug traffickers so far this year. U.S. officials have accused Venezuela of failing to effectively fight drug trafficking.
