President of Uruguay José Mujica desisted from traveling to Havana to visit his Venezuelan counterpart Hugo Chávez, as "there is no chance of seeing him," said on Thursday senator Lucía Topolansky, Mujica's wife.

Mujica's intended trip to Havana "makes no sense" because doctors taking care of Chávez informed that visits are not allowed, said the legislator.

She added that they have been closely monitoring "with attention and concern" the news about Chávez's health, whom she described as a friend. She told local media, "We must wait and have faith."

Luis Jiménez Alfaro seems to have hidden under the rocks. The last time he was seen was on April 2006 walking calmly around Simón Bolívar International Airport of Maiquetía, located nearby Caracas. At that time, more than five tons of cocaine arrived in Mexico in an airplane which took off from Venezuela, and his name featured as a missing piece of the puzzle of one of the most massive drug shipments that has been witnessed in the Western Hemisphere.
