Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said Thursday that Interpol actually made a "show" in Colombia by failing to prove any link between the Venezuelan government and Colombia's rebel groups.

It was a "joke" and a "charade" to link the Venezuelan government with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC),Chavez told a press conference.

Raul Reyes, FARC's second-in-command, was killed on March 1 during a Colombian military raid on the rebel camp inside Ecuador.

Three laptops were found on the spot, and were examined by Interpol, the international police agency, at the request of Colombia, which accused President Chavez of providing FARC with 300 million U.S. dollars and offering the guerrillas weapons and munitions.

Interpol's secretary general, Ronald Kenneth Noble, announced the results of the analysis on Thursday in Bogota, Colombia.

Noble said Interpol experts did not find proof of tampering from the laptops' files.

The Venezuelan government responded that Interpol's action is part of a campaign to discredit Chavez' administration.
