The general producer of Eventos Globales de Venezuela, José Gregorio Atienza, explained that the team of the American singer Romeo Santos had a bad experience in Venezuela “out of ambition”: he demanded more than 3 million dollars for the concert in La Carlota.
This was expressed in an interview with Rocío Higuera.
“Panteras Entertainment paid him more than $3 million. A year ago I contacted his manager, Amelfis Díaz, and we offered her $800,000 but never heard back. Later, another company offered her $1,500,000, but they also declined.
“Ambition breaks the bank, Ms. Amelfis Díaz bears great responsibility because she gave her artist into the wrong hands because of the money.”

He emphasized that the deputy is processing the measures of disposition and recording ban as well as the freezing of the assets of all the people under investigation in order to later indict them.

Saab emphasized that through initial investigations they discovered that the alleged person responsible for organizing the concert was Juan Carlos Araujo Durán, who is being detained and prosecuted for owning an airplane in the Dominican Republic in 2015, which was captured with 459 kilos of cocaine.
