Chavez rejects Interpol report as 'clown show'Posted: 06:16 PM ET
(CNN) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez dismissed as "a clown show" the Interpol report Thursday declaring that computers found in Ecuador by the Colombian military belonged to leftist rebels. In a news conference with international news media held at the presidential palace in Caracas, Chavez called Interpol's secretary general, Ronald Noble, a "gringo" policeman and "a tremendous actor." Chavez said Noble had tried to "give the clown show the character of scientific seriousness." Colombian President Alvaro Uribe has said the computers contain evidence that Chavez supported the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC. Chavez accused him of having "no shame." |
