President Hugo Chavez has lashed out again at Doctor Salvador Navarrete, who claimed to be Chavez's family doctor and stated that Hugo had less than 2 years to live.
In June...Chavez had a cancerous tumor removed but still refuses to reveal any details about it. Since then...Chavez has undergone 4 chemo treatments.
Navarrete had speculated that Chavez had an aggressive sarcoma.
The doctor fled Venezuela after voicing his opinion and police searched his office.
"He's a big fat liar. I hope he shows his face," Chavez said.
"He presents himself as a doctor of my family -- he isn't. He says that he operated on my mother -- he didn't"...and that he "never performed a single test on me," said Chavez.
ALSO from AP: The new key to the Chavez opposition is ex-baseball exec. Ramon Guillermo Aveledo, 61.
