President Hugo Chavez announced the arrest of eight Colombians on April 06. Chavez said that they were arrested because they are believed to have been spying on Venezuela's power plants according to the LA Times.
Chavez said the suspects were carrying computers, satellite telephones, photo cameras and identifications from the Colombian army. Investigators confiscated the cameras and found pictures of Venezuela's power grids.
Due to the recent power failures Venezuela has been experiencing, Chavez denounced purported sabotage of Venezuela's power grids.
"Who knows how many of these blackouts have been caused by sabotage?" he said. But Chavez did not offer any evidence of sabotage.
The identities of the suspects were not revealed.
