In 1962, just months after the Punto Fijo Pact restored democracy, a group of young naval officers attempted to seize control of Venezuela in what became known as El Carupanazo. But before they could reach the capital, a parallel plot unfolded in Caracas itself: the robbery of the Banco de Venezuela by Lieutenant Carlos Montiel and his comrades. This episode explores the audacious heist that was less about greed and more about political provocation, aiming to expose the corruption of the new democratic elite. We examine how the stolen funds were used to fund guerrilla operations, the chaotic pursuit by federal police, and the tragic execution of Montiel that shocked the nation. Through this lens, we see the fragile state of Venezuelan democracy in the early 1960s, caught between the stability of the military dictatorship it had replaced and the radical fervor of revolutionary movements inspired by Cuba. #CarlosMontiel #BancoDeVenezuela #ElCarupanazo #VenezuelanHistory #PuntoFijo #NavalRevolt #1962Heist #CaracasCrime #SouthAmericanPolitics #DemocraticEra #GuerrillaTactics #HistoricalRobbery #RómuloBetancourt #MilitaryCoup #VenezuelanNavy #ColdWarLatAm #PoliticalUnrest #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
