In a press conference, Ceballos presented evidence, videos, audios and proofs about the group that intended a series of terrorist actions before the elections.  This is the same group that tried to affect the 2020 parliamentary elections and the subsequent installation of the National Assembly (NA) on January 5, 2021.

This criminal group was neutralized by the State intelligence agencies, and four subjects were captured, informed Ceballos.

Those arrested are Dimas Alberto González González, alias "Sepulturero", José Miguel Acuña Justo, Francisco Daniel Moya Hernández and Keiner Gutiérrez, financed by William Ricardo Sánchez Ramos, alias "Antorcha," who is in Spain.  Antorcha coordinated the actions with fugitives Leopoldo López and Iván Simonovis.
