Lázaro Alberto Álvarez Casas
alias Alvarez Casas
Minister of the Interior (MININT)
Álvarez Casas was promoted to Minister of the Interior in December 2020, succeeding Julio César Gandarilla. Under his tenure the regime carried out mass arrests during and after the July 2021 (11J) protests, including hundreds of summary trials with multi-year sentences for protest-related offences. He was designated to the OFAC Specially Designated Nationals list in July 2022 under the Global Magnitsky Act framework. Public biographical details (birthdate, prior intelligence career path) are sparse — the regime has not published a standard CV.
