CARACAS, Monday September 04, 2006 | Update
Reporters without Borders (RWB) voice Monday satisfaction
for the detention of Ceferino García, mastermind of Mauro
Marcano's murder.
Marcano was an anchorman in local Radio Maturín 1.080
FM and a chronicler of daily El Oriental. He was killed on
September 1st, 2004 in Maturín, the capital city of eastern
Monagas state.
However, the organization claimed that the arrest two years
later shows sluggishness in the query and lack of conviction.
"Sure enough, the detention of Ceferino García is good
news in the event of confirming his involvement in the killing
of Mauro Marcano, and if his testimony helps to advance the
investigation. However, in two-year term, other five people
highly suspect in the crime, have not been detained," an official
press release noted.
