Saab said the influencer was arrested over a video he published on social media which, the attorney general said, shows a “financial building” and “urges that it be blown up with explosives.”
He was referring to a video in which Perez Martinez shows part of a building housing computer servers that are used by Venezuela’s banks.
Narrating the video, he says: “Get a load of this: If a bomb were thrown at this building, the whole national banking system would collapse.”
