General Hugo "El Pollo" Carvajal was arrested in Madrid, Spain on a US warrant for trafficking 5,600 kilograms of cocaine from Venezuela to Mexico" in 2006. His arrest comes after a 2014 indictment by the Southern District of New York. Carvajal advised the late Venezuelan leader Hugo Chávez for more than a decade, and headed the country's security apparatus. Recently, he became the most influential military figure to declare his loyalty to opposition leader Juan Guaidó.
