A Spanish judge believes there was "Venezuelan government cooperation" in the collaboration between ETA and the FARC, who were plotting to murder Colombian personalities in Spain, including President Alvaro Uribe, judicial sources said Monday.

Judge Eloy Velasco included in the indictment of six suspected members of ETA and seven of the FARC "show the Venezuelan government involvement in the unlawful collaboration between the FARC and ETA."

Velasco, judge of the Audiencia Nacional (Spanish main criminal tribunal) considers that this is particularly so in the case of suspected ETA member Arturo Cubillas Fontan, one of the defendants.

Cubillas is married since 1990 to the "Venezuelan Lataillade Goizeder Odriozola, who has held public office in the Venezuelan government of President Hugo Chavez, and was appointed in 2005 director within the Office of Management and Services of the Ministry of Agriculture and Venezuela's land," said the court order provided to AFP.

The alleged activist has been "responsible for the ETA group in that part of America since 1999, taking charge of coordinating relations with the FARC and the participation of members of ETA explosives and weapons workshops and dissemination techniques of urban guerrilla terrorist ", said judge Velasco.

Fontan is accused by Judge Velasco, along with members of the FARC Edgar Gustavo Navarro Ramon Vargas Morales and Victor Salazar, the "crime of conspiracy to commit terrorist murder."
