A man has been arrested for the murder two years ago of the Venezuelan journalist Mauro Marcano, a radio presenter and columnist with the daily El Oriental.. Police in Trinidad detained Ceferino García, the suspected head of a drug cartel. Marcano was shot dead in the car park at his home in September 2004 after being ambushed by two men. He had exposed collusion between senior army officers and García's drugs operation. The press watchdog, Reporters Without Borders, greeted news of the arrest but pointed out that the investigation had moved very slowly. (Via Reporters Without Borders)
