The images were uploaded by President Iván Duque to Twitter, this Thursday around 8 in the morning, to show the seizure and “destruction of another laboratory for the processing of cocaine”, in San Calixto, and said it was of a structure that “had the capacity” to produce up to 3 tons of drugs a month.

But in the photos there was something that caught the attention of Senator Feliciano Valencia, and that is that there are about 30 yellow plastic cans that look like new.

“Hehehehe (sic)”, reacted the congressman in a trill, and then explained the reason for his laugh.

“When the ‘false positives’, the boots and the clothes of the murdered were new, this time the cans and everything is new and not brand new, just a coincidence?”, Wrote Valencia, about three hours later, and showed himself incredulous in front of the official information.

The criticism of the senator was replicated in networks by those who were also suspicious when they saw those new cans in a laboratory to process cocaine, in a rural area, and the cartoonist Matador warned, with a photo, that several of them still had the barcode and even the plastic that covered them.

“What drug trafficker leaves the ‘stikers’ with the barcodes stuck on the cans so that it is easy to track where they bought them and follow up on them?” Asked the cartoonist, who criticized the head of state and his defense minister .

“This government and the Ministry of Defense believe us idiots,” he added.

The photos went viral since even the Army Commander, General Eduardo Zapateiro, published them on his networks to highlight the coup against drug trafficking. “This important result weakens the illegal finances of the GAO E-33 and reaffirms the institutional commitment against the scourge of drug trafficking”, He said.

The ridicule for the new cans led to the commander of the Second Division of the Army, General Marcos Pinto, responded to the criticism with several photos of the seized material and with a video that shows part of the operation.

The officer also confirmed that “1,208 kilograms of cocaine hydrochloride ready for sale” and “1,000 gallons of liquid supplies” were found at the site to process the alkaloid.

These were the most recent images that the Army published to silence criticism, as well as the video of the seizure.
