Ministrul apărării Diego Molano a indicat pe Twitter că Santrich "ar fi murit" împreună cu "alţi delincvenţi" în timpul unor "ciocniri în Venezuela".El a precizat că "informaţia este în curs de verificare", dar a subliniat că, "dacă este confirmată, aceasta dovedeşte că narcocriminalii îşi găsesc refugiu în Venezuela".Potrivit revistei columbiene Semana, "surse venezuelene înalt plasate" au confirmat moartea lui Santrich în timpul luptelor "între grupuri ilegale".Înainte de a se refugia, Santrich a fost acuzat de Statele Unite de trafic de droguri. El a fost arestat în 2018 cu scopul de a fi extrădat, însă Curtea Supremă columbiană a dispus eliberarea sa în 2019. El a negat întotdeauna acuzaţiile vorbind despre un "o înscenare". Washingtonul a oferit până la 10 milioane de dolari pentru capturarea sa şi a lui Marquez.Un comunicat, semnat "A doua Marquetalia", dar a cărui veridicitate nu a fost încă stabilită, acuză Bogota, asigurând că Santrich a fost ucis într-o "ambuscadă executată de comandouri ale armatei columbiene la 17 mai" pe teritoriul venezuelean în Serrania de Perija ( la nord de Anzii Cordilieri). Relaţiile dintre cei doi vecini, opuşi ideologic, sunt foarte tensionate, notează Agerpres.
